50 cal. sabots vs powerbelts???
« on: January 09, 2012, 12:35:46 PM »
What are some of your opinions on this matter?  What are the advantages and disadvantages of them both? Ive had goodluck with sabots and never tried powerbelts :dunno:

Have had great success with powerbelts! Never used sabots. Should be able to search for related question.

Powerbelt are my choice for sure. They seem to leave less plastic residue inside the barrel than sabots in my opinion.

I've killed deer and elk with both and had great performance out of both.  As far as accuracy goes I think it depends on your gun.
