    Sabot question......


    Hi. Didn't know where to post this.
    I am looking for a source of sabots that would allow using a .38 cal boolit in a .44 case.
    I have lots of the .30 cal / .22 sabots. I still have a quantity of the .38/.44 jobs left over from the 'old days', but I'd like more.

    I bought these to shoot IHMSA and they worked well in both my 44 mags and 445 Super Mags. However, I moved before I developed any serious target loads.
    Since I have now acquired several 44 mag rifles, I'm interested in using the sabots for the 1000s of .38 caliber bullets I have in stock.

    Google was not my friend on this search.

    thanks!

    I bought some several years ago from a company called RSR Sabot. They were 44/358 and worked great. I have about 50 left so I haven't looked to see if they're still in business.

    Thanks 442. Google only showed the usual strange links. I have a few hundred of these sabots, but having just purchased 2 new 44 cal rifles, just wanting a way to plink the 38 cal pills......

    thanks again.......

    Love the Google
    "Plastic rifle sabots"
    first thing that comes up: http://www.sabotreloadingpro.com
    I'm a firm believer in the theory that if it bleeds, I can kill it.

    Too bad they only offer 308x224, hopefully they're working on other offerings.
