Sabotloader sent some Lehigh 200g 40 caliber XP bullets to shoot, so i did.

This is the rifle used, a 45 caliber Omega. Load was 80g Blackhorn, 200g XP, Harvester smooth light blue sabot, W209 primer.

The bullet was found in the sixth (last) jug.

The second jug was toast. The third, and fourth jugs have large shredded tears. The fifth and sixth jugs have holes in and out, but the bullet did not exit the sixth jug even though it punched a hole on the back side. The first jug has some minor splitting at the entrance , but otherwise there is a hole in and a hole out. This i find quite unusual, most times, with most bullets, the first two jugs are shredded, and the rest have just entrance, and exit holes.
