I never thought to try a cast boolit in a sabot…not sure why not. I may have to give it a whirl. Good job!

If hunting with cast, I like the .45-70 with wide meplat bullets. I usually load them hot, but there’s no reason why you couldn’t load them to trap door velocities. 405 grains at 1300-1400 fps.

44 special with some skeeter loads would be plenty effective, I’d imagine.

I’m a bit partial to large meplats. I’d go for the largest diameter possible at a reasonable velocity. If you haven’t read it already, John Linebaugh has a great article about the 45 colt and all...

Center of the body, broadside, trying to hit both lungs. I try to stay away from the shoulder as it ruins a lot of meat.

I’d start with a .310 or .315 and different patch thickness to see what it likes. Good luck!

It gives great ballistics from what I can tell, but have heard a lot about finicky ignition, especially in cold weather.

Great job, congrats!

Ideal placement would have been 4” or so lower. That being said, perfect shots don’t always happen and it worked out in the end.

Great job! Was the projectile cast with pure soft lead?

Sure looks like it’ll make meat!
