[QUOTE="dogsled, post: 5724468, member: 22589"] My experience with Blackhorn (and this is in their literature) is that the sabot loads are needed to get a tight enough fit for good ignition. I experimented with the lead 50 cal and Powerbelts when I switched to Blackhorn, and neither worked reliably. They would basically fizzle out the end of the barrel. The Powerbelts (which I loved with Pyrodex) would work in a dirty (after one shot) barrel, but would not seal good enough with a clean barrel. I have since settled on the Harvester crush rib sabots which allow me to use different bullets as Remi mentioned in his post. [/QUOTE]
