Here's a dumb question:
When I start a tight sabot down the 28" barrel there's a significant volume of air in the barrel that will be displaced as the sabot/bullet is forced down onto the powder charge. Is all of that air forced out through the tiny hole in the breech plug? Is this a factor in why a tight sabot is hard to load?
