Default RE: Hornady Lock n' Load speed sabots ?

>>I would think that the tail part would disrupt accuracy, but IF people are shooting 1" groups with them (pardon my scepticism, 'Bulls, that I'd like to see before I believe it) they can't be that bad.>>

I understand your scepticism, I was sceptical myself. I just took a photo of the two groups on my target stand but the files are too large to post here. Drift, I'd be happy to send it to you and maybe you could post it.

The photo shows 6 shots all within 2 inches. I use a scope for grouping and they are 75 yard shots.

The other three shot group is on my buddies target stand and not readily available but it has the same pattern.

As for cost, it's never been a big deal to me to save a couple bucks on ammo especially when you consider the high costs of a big game hunt here in the west, even a DIY hunt as I do. I want whatever shoots the best and after trying everything from Dead Centers to Hornady, to Power Belts to Hydra Cons and several others, so far these shoot the best.
