Loading the Omega
I have a omega that really likes SSt's. I can't get the darn thing to load a second shot without REALLY pushing down. I tried changing from 777 to that stuff Jim Shockey endorses(sorry, I forgot the name), and pyrodex and still the same thing. Are the sabots just too big for the bore of my omega? Thanks.

Change the plastic sabots & buy either the Harvester crush ribs or MMP-3P (three petal orders by phone-only at their website...

RE: Loading the Omega
There is several possibilities
Try wiping between shots most of us do but with APP I can get a second and third without any great strain.
# 1 the only differance between SST's and Shock Waves is the sabot,the SST has a sabot that is about like a MMP 12 the Shock Wave is in between the 12 and the 24 so if the Shock Wave dont fit try the MMP HPH24 if that is to thick try the Harvester Chrush Rib. Lee
