[QUOTE="JGRJR, post: 2188932, member: 69912"] Thanks Butterbean and thanks to those who pointed out the issues with sabots and muzzle brakes. I had known not to do shoot sabots with a brake but did not make the connection while watching the video. The individual that was injured did not did not seem to make the possible connection between sabots and the accident. I did not know what a SLAP round was. Why shoot crazy old ammunition? All of my precision rifles have never had a factory round in them. I certainly would not shoot thirty year old ammunition. I guess the lesson is. 1) Know your ammunition. 2) Do not shoot alone. 3) Have a trauma kit and training. And for those inclined to do stupid things. Do not shoot thirty year old sabot ammunition of questionable heritage while using a questionable firearm design, while using a muzzle brake, just to get a few internet clicks on Youtube. [/QUOTE]
