Default RE: Precision Rifle Extended Range Sabots

I used to buy those bullets direct from Precision a number of years ago when they were a lot cheaper. I never had much luck with those .40 caliber bullets/sabot combinationout of my gun regardless of powder charge. Sure, I could get acceptable accuracy, but nothing special. On the other hand, I've shot great groups with with some of their .44 caliber 275 grain QT bullets with green sabotsover90 to 120 grains of pyrodex.

I now shoot pistol bullets out of my gun. Many of the guys here do the same. Good things are said about the Noslers and Speer Gold Dots. Tough bullets that shoot well will be the concensus. Can drive themfastwith a hefty powder charge and no fear of bullet failure. I use XTP's.They shoot great and are cheap. Just don't push them too fast. I like 90 grains of BH209.

Hope this helps...Jimmy
