So recently i purchased some black crush rib sabots made for a 50 cal muzzleloader and holds a .45 bullet.
Im shooting with 100 grains of white hot pellets
My cast bullet is a lee .452 SWC 230g
The muzzleloader is a traditions buckstalker
as this is my first time in this wheel house, My questions are...
What type of accuracy should i expect? i know there are many factors but assuming all things equel. what would be considered good accuracy for this type of perjectile and this load at decent hunting ranges IE. 100-300 yards ?
Would increasing to 150 grains of powder increase my accuracy or would there be negative effects being as it is a plastic sabot
How well does a sabot obterate and will consistency be a huge issue with this method vs a power belt
Lastly..
Would this method allow me to obtain higher velocities over a 50 cal power belt
