my 1-48 twist doesnt like sabots. i talked to a custom flint lock maker shooter at one of the shows and he shoots them all day long in his guns . all gun are different but he suggested using all lead type bullets. he used a lee mould and made his own. i guess like those cheap shot bullets. im thinking heavier bullets might be better. im gonna shoot a few and see if it works in mine but i dont think im will ever give up my 370 maxi balls. it just knocks deer over.
