I am using Crush Ribs mainly because they are easier to load than the standard ones that came with my Hornady XTP's. Do you see any additional benefit in the MMP's?MMP and Harvester (makers of the Crush Ribs among other types) are the two big companies that produce sabots. I’ve used both companies products in various rifles with various bullets and like both. I wouldn’t say there’s any advantage to either - just different options.
Which type of sabot specifically are you looking for?
That's the one I use and it works for my accura 50 cal I won't switch unless they stop making itFor anyone with a particularly tight bore you could try the MMP 3 petal easy.
Ok. That's the kind of feedback I'm looking for. Are they easier to load than the crush ribs?That's the one I use and it works for my accura 50 cal I won't switch unless they stop making it
Definitely.Ok. That's the kind of feedback I'm looking for. Are they easier to load than the crush ribs?
I have not tried the crush ribbed have used the 4 petal black mmp and the 3 petal mmp ez I like the 3 petal better I get clover groups at 100yrds. all day shooting off bags at the bench and I even Shot deer at 150yrds also it works for my area of woods that I hunt I use this gun all the time for regular deer and muzzy seasons I have a remington 30 06 bolt that kills any thing within 300 yrds no problem. I haven't hunted with that gun since I bought the accura 8 years ago. I love my cva accura. It has the best trigger brake imo than most guns out there mine is at 2 1/2 lbs. Of pull .Ok. That's the kind of feedback I'm looking for. Are they easier to load than the crush ribs?
I should not be reading this stuff because it gets me thinking and I start trying different things. I cast and size 250g to .452 for my son and I. In the 50s a harvester works fine but I think I will try the EZ.This has been posted many times on MM, but seems fitting to put it up again View attachment 43022
I use the smooth LBs too. I did try the CRs but the smooth are a bit more accurate in mine. Using n110.I have used Harvester black crush ribbed and MMP smooth black sabot in a 50. Now, I use Harvester light blue smooth sabots in my Scout 45-70 conversion. Both worked in the 50. In the 45, I like how the HLBS smooth loads snug plus it shoots good. I'm sure the HLBS crush ribbed would probably work but I started with the smooth first.
I buy the .452 250grn. honady xtp bullets 100ct. and the mmp ez black sobots 2 bags of them under 60 bucks cheaper buying in bulk.I should not be reading this stuff because it gets me thinking and I start trying different things.

Hi guysUsually crush rib sabots would allow you to use example a .452 bullet vs a .451 . I have a couple rifles that the bore is still too small. I have to size my bullets smaller to use the .451 bullet
I was just on the MMP sight and the red EZ in .50 no longer seems to be listed. There's a purple .54 EZ but no .50. This sucks as I would have liked to try themFor anyone with a particularly tight bore you could try the MMP 3 petal easy.
