Mark Miller used a Knight Mountaineer 45cal in the most recent Inline Hunter match and did very well with a sabotless jacketed Parker Ballistic Extreme. This match goes out to 300 yards IIRC.
The Unlimted match was won by a sabotless Parker with Blackhorn209. 2nd and 4th places were also a sabotless Parker

didn't know we were talking shooting matches, power belts were the rage a few years ago cause they loaded easy, only heard from a handful of knowledgeable shooter who claimed good accuracy, then the poor terminal performance reports started coming.
a bullet that performs very poorly whether it hits its quarry or not is better used for a fishing sinker.
