I don't pay to much attention to difference in price. The first concern is the difference in thickness you are not likely to get the Short Black MMP down you barrel I think it might be the thickest sabot made, might fit a White Rifle. The other concern is the plastic they are made of; those of us that shoot max loads of BH fined they do not hold up as well. I used to use MMP exclusively but found the choices limited by the performance. Lee

I hope these work....I bit the bullet and ordered 2 packs! My TC SW blue tip 250gr will fit correct??????? I only plan to shoot 2x50 777 pellets or 3x50 777 pellets depending what my Triumph likes to shoot. So far I think she likes the 2x50---DrAsus

The blue tip are bonded that's not necessary for sight in or practice, I use the cheaper yellow tips for practice and deer , I use the blue tips for elk big boar and bear. I also use the Lehigh 200 50/40 and 50/45 250grand for close hunting in the woods I have used the 250 Gold Dot along with several different sabots. But for starting out I would recommend the SW250 and the SBH for a Triumph as most Triumph's do quite well with them. Lee

You will pay no shipping on the MMP sabots
