[QUOTE="RockMcL, post: 5441333, member: 23050"] Not sure just how fast your sending or just how far/flat you want to top at but I have had great expansion out of the simple sabot & Hornaday xtp 240s or 250s. Again, push them too hard and the sabots start slipping/skipping and accuracy suffers. I think I have recovered only two of the bullets, both deer quartering away, that ended up fully expanded and intact just under the hide after breaking far side shoulder bone. I use the bullets in 45 colt loads though so I have a convenience purpose as well. I never got powerbelts shooting well enough to hunt with but again that was me playing with a few Encode barrels and a big jug of sabots that worked with bullets I had, I probably took the easy road. All other deer shot were full pass through with impressive wound channel [/QUOTE]
