Default Barnes Spitfire Sabots

I picked up a 25 round box of the 245 Spitfires. The sabot are yellow. Is this the currant production? These where suggested as shooting well in the Encore and I want to make sure I have the right sabots.

Yes, those are the right sabots for the bullet. Whether they will load well in the Encore you will have to see. I personally shoot them out of a Knight Wolverine and the accuracy is outstanding...

I had the same box and they didnt load in my savage for beans, i used some MMP 50cal .451- .452 Black sabots instead of the yellows provided (and w/ some technical assistance from Cayugad.thanks again Cayugad)and did great.
