Hook you can try and cast a couple of them. But as for a sabot, unless your bore is on the larger side, you should use Harvester black crush rib sabots. These will make it easier to load. You don't have to use pure lead for bullets that you will be using a sabot with as long as you use the correct sabot and bullet diameter. Sabots were designed so you can use jacketed bullets. But too hard an alloy and you won't have any expansion like GM said.
