Default T/C Shockwave Sabots - whats new?

Does anyone know if there is a difference with the regular T/C Shockwaves these days? I know T/C developed the Super Glide version but I have a couple boxes 2-3 years old of the regular Shockwaves. Did T/C ever change the thickness of the sabot on them? Model number on the boxes still match what they sell today. I just remember some discussion about some of them being a bear to load.

I don't think the regular Shockwaves have changed. But T/C did recently come out with an all copper bullet. Kind of like a Barnes.

I do notthink they changed anything. I think they either load good or real bad. I justbought some for the triumph i should have this week. The super glides where the fix for the black sabots. I was told if the black ones load hard try the super glides. But if the black ones load ok do not use the super glides as they might or properly will effect your groups. SO i bought the black ones. Figure if the trial pack loads hard i will return them. But hey if you wanting to off load the ones you have how much do you want. I properly would be up for buying them.
