Looking for 45 caliber sabots that use 357 bullets

Thanks Ninering,
Sometimes I get lucky.
Every once in a while I stumble upon a nice piece of maple to shape.
off topic:
Here's my latest wood project... albeit less dramatic grain ...
a little like a Garand got with a TC... 14" 6x223 bbl. fully free-floated from rear lug forward.

Nice, creativity, craftsmanship, and it goes BANG. Very cool. TY for the nicely set up pic as well.

MMP sells sabots for 45/357.

I just ran across these & my 1st time in this online store. I remembered this thread & thought I'd add another option.

Just got into Encores after about 35 years of contender addiction
Holding myself back, just a 270 rifle barrel and a 209x45 rifle setup.
Probably gonna pass on the handgun platform with this one.
Ninering62, sure helps to have those sabots on hand! Thank you so very much for the link.

Now that an Encore is in the stable, of course a 45 cal. barrel had to be acquired.

Next to get a reliable load established ...

if you are concidering a full bore load, try Fury bullets. I have had excellent results.
