It seems like you misinterpreted / overreacted...or just wanted to make a sharp edged response...I never even hinted that what you're doing is stupid, and there was no mention or inference of TC.
==============================================
That's where we disagree Roundball! I was trying to be polite/cordial to you. I know what we do is NOT stupid.
You see..You have a habit of posting after discussions like crud rings, solvents, repeated shot difficulty.... etc. You make shooting sound so easy in your narrow-minded world of roundballs/Bore Butter. You don't try to get involved in our discussions about sabots, plastic, copper solvents, blackpowder subs... etc. You always come into threads like this one with a 180 degree curveball.
A large majority of shooters asking questions about modern bullets & rifles are FORMER roundball shooters (or) shooters who have modern & traditional MLs. These same posters already know the world of roundballs & have already made a financial & mental decision to go another ML course. So many times, your continued same-ol' --- same-ol' talk about sloshes of bore butter in the bore & inexpensive roundballs producing a million shots without swabbing gets old in threads like this.
You have the right to discuss your opinions in a free internet message board as you see fit. But when you come into a sabot discussion with ...
"it seems like we sometimes create problems that we don't even have to have".... that's where the problem with your post occurs. Sabots are superior to roundballs. Subs like 777 & Black Mag-3 are superior to your Goex in most situational uses. We cannot use your Wonderlube 1000 with sabots. We cannot shoot all day without swabbing. We need to use harsh solvents sometimes. We prefer storing oils over your Wonderlube 1000 as a bore protector with these modern MLs.
I shoot roundballs & use Wonderlube on occasion. I get alot of shots off without swabbing too. But you don't see mee/read me talking about it during a modern muzzleloading discussion.
Nuthin' stupid about that Mr. Roundball..... actually it's pretty smart. Try it sometime! I do know you shoot modern MLs. Join the discussion about them instead of trying to disrupt it. I'm done here & hopefully you'll begin to share with these posters your ideas about sabots, blackpowder subs & harsh cleaners.
