Using the proper sabot/bullet combination (adequate pressure required to seat it on the charge) will the sabot slip in the rifling?
Some are claiming that it could slip as much as 6"-8"! Also, can the bullet slip inside the sabot using the same fit as above?
Thanks


Hello Mr. Bronkoxxxx,
If the proper sabot/bullet combination for the particular muzzleloader is used, the sabot should not slip in the rifling.
