sabot tightness loading down barrel
I have a remington700 ML. I have it sighted in using the remington 245 grain saboted bullets. Getting anywhere from bullseye to 2 inches out but I believe it's me moving a little bit other than the gun. These remington sabots really load tight with a clean bore to start with and after 3rd shot you can't get them down. We'll I run out of the remingtons and havn't been able to find them around here. So I bought some hornady 240 grain sabots. These sabots load real easy but shoot 5 inches off first shot then grouping gets better with each shot up til about 7 or 8 then I have to start swabbing barrel to load them. I would like to find a tighter fitting sabot to try out to start with then maybe go to the hornadys after the barrel is fouled. Forgot to mention I'm using 100 grains of pyrodex pellets for charge.
