On another forum I was asked about Harvester Short Black vs MMP HPH-24... I think I might like to add my repsonse over here also..
I see you're using MMP sabots for both the .40 and .45... How do these load in your Omega ? Have you tried the Harvesters ?
My Omega (older - 2005) really likes just about any .452 bullet in the Harvester short black with T7 or BH209.
I have tried the Harvester sabots. and like yours mine is an older Omega and does have a more open bore so I do not need the CRib sabot. I can load the regular MMP - Harv Short black or long Black - even the MMP Orange .458/50 cal sabot.
I really do like the MMP better than the Harvester from the Omega. I can switch to the Harvester and see no difference in POI... It just seems to me that the 24 loads smoother all the way down the barrel.
The other thing if you look at a 250 grain Lehigh, it is longer than a typical 250 grain copper lead bullet - so I kinda like the bit if extra support + the extra length might grab more surface of the riflings and get better rotation. If you look at the body of the bullet you'll see that it has, what I call a longer barrel to the bullet - so putting it in the longer sabot might make it grip the bore better and the cannur rings in the bullet help it grip the sabot.
