Reusing sabots?
« on: September 28, 2022, 02:22:34 PM »
Have a bunch of  knight bloodline bullets/sabots.. I have about 20 over the years that were loaded for a while, than pushed through the gun and than reloaded with new bullets. The sabots clearly look used.. anyone have an idea if it's ok to re use these for hunting purposes? I'm wondering if it's going to affect impact point or become inconsistent in accuracy

I've reused them for target shooting without noticing any change from a new sabot.  But for hunting, I'll spring for a new one.

Quite often I follow this same procedure!!!
Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!
