No offense taken. As far as expense it works out to around 1.30 per load. I contrast that with the hundreds of dollars I've spent in the last several years on much more expensive loads that didn't...

I think I have a winner! 5 shot 50 yard group. Pic is sideways though
I have the sabots, I spoke with Emma, mailed a check, as they don't take credit cards. About a week later my order showed up. I heard about them on the buck and slug reloaders group on FB. Many of...

I have the sabots, I ordered them from Gun Servicing LLC in New Jersey, they make them
After 2 years of checking store shelves and online retailers to find no 20 gauge sabot ammunition I am taking matters into my own hands. While waiting for components to arrive I cast 100+ boolets...
I have had descent accuracy in a rifled barrel loading .678 ball in AA wads. Keep the velocity relatively low and you will get accuracy. 1200 fps or less. The .690 ball is a good fit in the 12s3 wad....
Awesome report! I myself have been looking for data to launch a .735 ball or other bore diameter slug on a hard wad stack using longshot powder.

Yes you can. I asked the same question here several years ago. Another member replied its all he uses. I've used COWW lead for hunting in a 50 cal. 490 ball, 015 patch. Touch harder to get started....
Thanks for the reply. I haven't come across anyone reporting better than mediocre accuracy with this bullet. I want to get away from buying sabots for my wife's 20ga. They are getting really...
Looks like I missed the boat on getting one of the awesome slug molds from Russia for my 20 gauge slug gun. Anyone have any experience with the lyman sabot slug?
Sorry about your bad experience. Funny thing is, I was looking at that mold and didn't buy it because I thought it came with the proprietary wad pin. If I knew it had a pin to make a standard hollow...

I set up one of my slug guns with a skinner peep and blade. Works awesome. May want to look at his sights.

Use them oversize for hunting. You DO NOT want it moving off the powder while walking, sitting, waiting etc.
Thinking about getting into pouring and loading some Buckshot. I know harder is better. Would clip on wheel weight alloy be hard enough for good patterns and performance, or should I look to a...
Thanks for the link. I also see they have data for long shot. That might be the ticket. I have been skeptical of blue dot because these loads may see use in some pretty cold weather.
I am getting ready to load up some .678 round balls in shot cup loads. I would like to push the velocity to 1500 or 1600 to match 1 oz factory slug loads. Can't find any lead shot loads that fast. ...

Thanks for the reply, but I think this thread is about the slug that fits in a shot cup. The one I was referring to is the full bore diameter slug.
I saw this mold on his web site today. Did some searching here but didn't find any discussion. What's the story? Any one use It? Range report?
I would like to get the .678 balls velocity up with factory slugs. Longshot data starts at 1 1/8 oz, and this ball barely tops an ounce. Steel powder has some impressive speed in 1 oz data, but all...
I experimented with .690 balls in a hastings rifled barrel. Wad cup with ball was too tight of a push for comfort. I clipped opposing petals from the AA wad. It now passed through with a comfortable...
Longbow,
The Pacific barrel machined into a tube is an idea, but I wonder if the grade of steel used in the BP barrel would lend itself to that application.
