[QUOTE="M T Pockets 000, post: 5690292, member: 21274"] Didn't want to take away from poorhunters post. From what he was saying I am asking a question or two of my own. I know that the majority of inline Black Powder rifles are 50 caliber. I also know most shoot a 45 bullet with a sabot. My question is why? Why not a 50 cal bullet that will fit the rifle bore?. I shoot smokeless now. A converted 45/70 hunter. I use a .451 Parker extreme or a .451 Hornady XTP. I use the powder and a felt patch with the bullet. Why are there no 50 cal bullets designed to fit the 50 cal rifle bores? Just seems to me if a 45 cal can be made to fit without a sabot a 50 cal should also. But what do I know 🤔 [/QUOTE]
