Model 97D Riflescope
Our sabots allow .30 caliber firearms to shoot
.224 caliber bullets at substantially increased velocities.
The sabot nylon resin material is extremely heat resistant
and offers less wear on the barrel. The barrel does not
experience a build up of copper or lead residues and any
sabot material is easily cleaned. Upon exiting the barrel,
the sabot flowers away allowing the .224 rifle bullet to fly
normally.
Big Accuracy Requirement - Before firing sabots in any gun, clean the copper and lead fouling out of that barrel. If you don't accuracy will suffer. Big Safety Requirement - Never fire sabots in barrels that have muzzle brakes. Premature flowering in the brake could act as a barrel obstruction. Use 50-60 Grain Bullets - The rifling twist rate on most .30 calibers is 1:12 or 1:10. For .224 caliber bullets, this twist rate is best suited to bullets in the 50-60 gr. weight range. A General Approach to Loading Saboted Cartridges...Always start with light loads and "work up" your loads to find what functions and shoots best in your firearm. NEVER USE LOAD DATA AS THOUGH IT WERE AN EXACT RECIPE. Every barrel and chamber is different and pressures peak at different levels. Load data is merely a reference or a hint of where to start, what powders to use, and what the potential results might be. Here is the best way to proceed...First, check below to see if the cartridge you want to load with sabots is listed in our computer generated loading reference/data. If it is, use that data as a reference for developing your own loads. Second, check in loading manuals to find .224 caliber cartridges that may have the same or close case capacity to the .30 caliber cartridge you are working with. For example, 22-250 is close to our 300 Bench Rest Magnum in case capacity. So if you wanted to load sabots in the 300 BRM, you could reference some possible starting load data from 22-250... get an idea of what powders to use and the potential velocities to achieve.
