    someone had read "point of impact" and now fears a .338 LM being saboted with a .308 projectile and used to snipe at long range......is the only rational I can see behind sabot law change.....any twit can pick up used projectiles and load into a .12ga case...not wouldnt some (for grins n giggles ONLY) 9mm fmj picked up of certain ranges...that ended up in side of house etc be hilarious after ballistics teams analize them... I CAN SEE the court notes now... judje asks"have you identified the gun that fired them?"
    police procecuter answers "yes we have your honour"
    "well spit it out then"
    PP very red in face replies "well your honour there are four different weapons and all are in police armoury"

    CASE DISMISSED....
    heck a really mischievious fella could pop them through windows with a forked stick and bit of nicker elastic or slice off a car tyre....
