[QUOTE="hubel585, post: 1811579"] Some 12ga sabot progress. Here is pic of our sabot model, two in front, shown with Accutip sabot behind. They are all holding 58cal slugs, showing how tight they fit and conform to the inside of the sabot petals. A decent fit is a help for better accuracy. Hope they get built for us this summer. We are working on it. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_side58sabot.jpg[/IMG] Second picture is from a fellow who put 58cal cast slugs in a thinwall 20ga shotcup and shot this at 50 yds. This with first load he tried. Great accuracy for so many shots. This shows great possibilities with 58cal slugs, and should even do better in the 12ga sabot like the above we like. I've heard about BP guys who got into 58cal that they get good accuracy. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_20gatarget.jpg[/IMG] Here is picture of some the grey bls sabots showing the way they have got bent and beat up, and shows what I and many others have found; that plastic cushions can bend and twist and shift, affecting the slug on leaving the barrel, affecting the accuracy. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_firedBLS.jpg[/IMG] On a future work, I'm doing a Greener Martini in my 585HE long case, Here is picture of a parts action with a stock idea I'm experimenting with. Might use this or regular pistol grip. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_oldgreener.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
