Default TC Super Glide Shockwave Yellow Sabots

Has anybody shot any of TC's new Super Glide Sabots in a .50 cal. Omega or Encore? I am wondering how they load compared to the old black sabot "Shockwaves" which are a bugger to get past the first 4 inches of my guns. Also wondering whether they shoot as good as the old "Shockwaves".

they are a thinner sabot so you might have better luck with them. I shot them out of the Black Diamond XR and they shot no better or worse then the old standard Shockwave. Of course I never had a problem loading the old ones.. good luck if you try them.

I noticed no difference in loading them in my Kodiak mag.

They load about the same as hph24 from MMP for me shot about the same too,the regular SW load a bit stiff in my Omega; the super guild and the 24's load just tight enough to be safe,and shoot the best too. Lee

I agree-I have the best groups and ease of loading with the 2 petal 250 gr super glides in my Omega

......shooting 2inch groups at 200 yards.
Please enter yourself/your ML into the 2007 Modern Muzzleloader Shooting Championships. Just phone T/C Inc & they will defintely want to see an in-person demonstration from you ... even pay for your travel/accomodations there afterwards/duplicating that 2"@200 yards.

You can call at: 603-332-2333, or fax at: 603-332-5133
