RE: powerbelt
Generally speaking, Powerbelts are sensitive to their own makeup & composition. Unlike other modern plastic sabots & bullets, their performance can diminish rapidly -- for instance ....just by their plastic skirt hole being .001 oversized.
Whenthey are produced properly & the shooterdoes his homework in regards toshot placement & modest powder charge, they are generally highly accurate&even the smallish coppers (223s) leaveimpressive holes indeer.
Make sure the skirt is loosely-fit onto the bullet -- don't use magnum powder charges with the leaded or copper Belts -- test them first so your bore diameter meets the Powerbelt fit in your barrel -- then know how to use that gun for best results...... meaning a lung or heart shot & notaiming for large bone.
