That is from 2 ML10IIs . I use the short Black standarb sabot in the 10mlIIs and like the Knight black sabot in my T-Bolt.
Hey Screwbolts, do you cast those with soft lead or a hardened alloy? Can you post a picture of the bullets?

EDIT: Oops! Just re-read everything and realized you're dealing with hard cast. I'm not a fan of hard cast bullets on deer, even WFNs. Had some bad experiences with hard cast WFNs out of my .41 mag. But I'd sure like to try some of those 330 LFNs in soft lead. If I send you ten pounds of lead, would you send back a pound of bullets?
