Do you guys clean between shots? In my triumph I have found it to be a must, Did not remember just how bad it was, but *** that thing is tight.

Also would alittle oil around the side of the sabot be ok. Seems it helps to run it down. I just put alittle on my finger and run it around the side but not the bottom.

Swabbing is good. Oil would be bad. A sabot does not need lubrication. The sabot itself is the lubrication. Getting it too slippery might effect the way it grips the rifling. Personally I would not do it.

Get some Windex and swab between shots. If the sabot/projectile is still too tight, go with a Harvester Crushed Rib or Harvester EZ load sabot.

I also use Windex for patching between shots. The ammonia in the solution helps the moisture evaporate and as it evaporates it carries water with it.

I premake patches just for this process...

Yep, always clean between shots for best accuracy...The condition of the barrel affects each shot so if it's clean each time, you are consistant...

As far as a "tight" barrel, that's controlled by using a different sabot, like the crushed rib or the MMP-24...You can even go to a .430 diameter bullet and a crushed rib...

It's not the bullet or sabots fault the barrel was bored a little too small...Kinda like buying the right size shoe, change sabots...

With my inlines, yes, with sidelocks and PRBs, not always.

Skip the oiling, and if you need, get crushed rib or similar sabots.

I use the windex between shots, works great, and easy to use. Though I just carry a bottle with me and spray it on the patch.

I have been using the 250 grain shockwave, so might go with the super glide. Though hate to waste the 30 bullets and sabots I just bought.

My understanding is this is a general issue with the triumphs and bore tightness. Guess I know it is nice and tight.

Funny thing is I just remembered being a kid and wondering how the bullet stayed in a muzzleloader. LOL

Ever Try Blackhorn 209 powder? It will eliminate swabbing between shots forever. Your gun will actually start shoot better after the 2nd or 3rd shot.

I prefer the first shot to be the best. LOL

Blackhorn is the trick, stuff is great. More expensive, but worth it to me. I still swab with BH209, but thats just me.

agree'd. Blackhorn209

Naw, GOEX is the stuff. One stroke down and up with one side of an alcohol patch between shots will keep you shooting dawn to dusk. Ya` know, it's really not all that much of a chore.
