For whatever reason I decided to get a Leupold 3-9 CDS scope for my MK85 that I don't use anymore. :wink:
My step-son has shot the PR Bullet duplex sabots before and didn't like them, I have some and never shot them. But I bought some Barnes 200gr .45 cal with thinking I could put the .400" bullet in the blue Harvester sabots I have. Then I chucked one in my lathe and trimmed the bottom cup flush and stuffed it in a .50 cal sabot.
It looks pretty good but I wonder if the 2 sabot walls will provide enough grip to spin the bullet, and whether the slits for the 2 sabots should be indexed with one another or offset? Thanks.
