    30 cal sabots??

    Ive toyed with this as an idea do any of you guys use them whats your experiences or thoughts
    ive coppied this off of someones TM listing

    sabots for a 30 cal rifle
    they use a 22 cal projectile (I use 55 gn vmaxs) pressed into the sabot.photos of bullets are a 223 and a 30 06 using same projectile. the 30 06 is traveling about 4200 fps
    They are like a wad in a shotgun and separate as it leaves the barrel

    here is a few est muzzle velocity
    .300 win mag 4400 fps
    3006 4200 fps
    308 win 3800 fps
    30 30 win 3500 fps
    BURN BABY BURN
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt Rule 5: Check your firing zone
