Here is a release from Ballistic Products Inc. This is strictly for reloading right now. I am sure slug manufacturers will be using these things in their slugs before too long. I looked at their specs. You can reload a 500 gr soft point in a 2 3/4" shell and get around 2600 fps. Thats a little better than a 458 lott. The chamber pressure is about the same as a remington buckhammer slug.
The long-awaited arrival of our BLS-12 Ballistic Sabot. After a year of prototyping and the development of our own proprietary resin blend, we are finally ready to unveil our own 12 gauge sabot design. We are launching .50 cal pistol bullets (300 gr., 350 gr., & 500 gr.) at ultra-high velocities up to 2800 feet per second. That's right, 2800 FPS! We will also be offering a fully non-toxic .50 cal bullet (300 gr.) that is custom fitted to our sabot. Born of the rigid ballistic requirements of tactical and national defense loads, this is the first sabot design that reduces spike pressures to allow for higher velocities. What can it do for your shooting?
Thank you! We look forward to assisting your shotgunning needs.
Sincerely,
The entire crew at Ballistic Products Inc.
