You are correct - insert the sub-base in the crown place the bullet on top and push the combo down the bore...
The sub-base does not fit on the bullet at all - it just collects all the gas and pushes the bullet up the bore. The really nice thing is that in theory it comes off the base of the bullet a lot cleaner than does a regular sabot...
