[QUOTE="HarryN, post: 944163, member: 69773"] A person could make a reasonable point that sabot round is undersized as well, but that does not make them a low performance concept. I have no idea if it would work, but it would be interesting to see what happens in a bullet that uses drive bands and has portions of it significantly undersized: Example 375 size chambering, with the bulk of the bullet 358 or 338 size, maybe with tapering to help fill in the hole. I have no idea if the concept makes sense, but in theory you could use a 375 H&H and make it go really fast with an improved SD if it behaves like a normal sabot. [/QUOTE]
