[QUOTE="ken snyder, post: 514115, member: 26019"] Sounds like the 250gr. Accubond Sabot was a very succesful experiment. It may not have yielded the desired results, but it did yield results. (( What type of material is being used to make the shoes. )) I wonder how short the barrel could be cut down and still make representation of the origional 3000 fps velocity. Because I'm more interested in a short barrel (legal) for a few reasons. # 1 the obvious benefits of short barrel stiffness and the decreased time for me to wiggle. I'm not sure but as far as velocity goes ( first stop on the road ) a full pressure load with smaller charge weight and faster burning powders should bring velocities up without haveing the need of a large volume of expanding gases needed to keep it going through a long tube, and once the bullet hits a particular velocity, there simply is not enough time left to significantly increase bullet velocity. From a short barrel it could end up a win win situation. If the mechanics of good velocity can affordably be achieved, then the costs of shoe development would be a fun hobby and who knows! [/QUOTE]
