[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 514063, member: 24624"] They seem to work well as a band-aid in certain applications such as overcoming deficiencies of muzzleloaders and allowing one to shoot a much smaller/lighter bullet in a hunting rifle. But in practice, I doubt it buys you anything for LRH. Without some kind of R&D breakthrough, I would expect you to lose long range accuracy and consistency compared to a properly engineered 338 rifle. I've actually never seen the 30 cal/22 call sabots come close to the accuracy of a well-built 222, 223, 22-250. But, my experience is somewhat limitted. Nonetheless, it's a great concept and I'd be curious to know if anybody's pursuing it. -- richard [/QUOTE]
