I know the air rifle pellet shaped ones fall through a cylinder bore they also fit snugly inside a 16 gauge brass case. As to my friction idea, in theory they only bear on the barrel at the skirt and nose.

Ummmm. Indeed they do but it is my understanding that they are to be used as a Sabot slug so no "falling" involved then. Used with the WAA 12 which is a perfect fit, they don't "fall" down the bore, thye will move smoothly BUT require to be forced through any choke.....which is not surprising as I also understand that choking is not recommended.
As i have to fit a choke to protect the inside barrel choke thread, I then find that neither of what I believe are my two true cylnder chokes appear to be "true" as they both impede a sabot Lyman. Bit of a puzzle that and not sure how to overcome it.
I don't have any wads with a thiner external petal diameter than the WAA12 petals so if anyone knows of such a wad with the same column height, or less, I would appreciate hearing about it.
