I struggled for years with the same problem with my T/C 50cal not wanting to give up sabots.  They still shot great just a pain to load, after breaking my fourth bullet starter in the dark, in the backcountry and putting some splinters in my hand I was done.  I switched at the recomendation of a friend on here to powerbelts and have never looked back, they load so much easier and shoot good.

I had the same problem with my T/C black diamond express.  The barnes tmz-ez's made it much easier to load.  As were the T/C shockwaves.

  I had the same prob with my knight.  After about ten to fifteen no problems.  I also have heard bore butter or anything else is bad.  I was told it allows the sabot to slide through the rifling instead of griping and twisting it.  I shoot everything out of mine now without a prob. :dunno:
