What kind of sabots would I need to get? That's one of the things that drew me to the powerbelts I didn't have sabots or anything to deal with. However, if they are that much better I might have to switch to them.
The sabot you need will depend on the rifle you are shooting and the size of the bore. It should not be hard to find one as you have a ton of choices with a 45 cal bullet. I use a MMP HPH-24 in motst of my guns - others like the Short Black Harvester and they are also cheaper per sabot.
Another problem exists right now... they may be hard to find, Speer just signed a multi-million dollar contract to supply the French with Gold Dots - so most of their manufacturing is trying to supply that contract.
In general are saboted bullets as accurate or more accurate than ones like the Powerbelts? Or should I expect a loss of accuracy?
Gotta tell you and this my opinion - but i think you can achieve much better accuracy with saboted than Power Belts - but then again the bad thing about a Power Belt is not their accuracy... IMO it is their terminal performace and the fact you have to shoot them so slow.
I certainly would not expect a loss of accuracy....
