I started using the Knight easy load sabot with the Barnes 290 gr. bullet. This thing is the ticket. Great accuracy at 100 yards and Saturday I shot 2 does and both dropped where they stood. The first one got up and went about 60 yards before piling up, the second didn't move from where she was standing. Both shots were complete pass throughs, with big exit holes.
If anybody is looking for a new bullet, give this one a try.

How much and what type powder were you using? I absolutely love anythign Barnes makes, but haven't been using their sabots because they're so hard to load after the first shot. If they've got that worked out, I'd like to switch back.

CZ, I'm using 100 grains of 777 in pellet form. I don't remember how much the pack cost right now, I think they were about $16 at Bass Pro.

Much easier to load than the original Barnes that I used to use.
