sabots
I have muzzleloaded for manyyears, I started when i was 16 and hunted the first ml season they started here in Arkansas with a TC hawken which i still own. I see a lot of people in here talking about different sabots like crushed rib and so on. I just use the sabots that come with the bullets that i buy for my rifles. My question is do they make that much difference? I know muzzleloaders can be finicky at times, but I have never spent the time to try different sabots. Usually i dont have that much problem getting them to shoot acceptable groups for me. I was just wondering.

RE: sabots
Yes by changing sabots, it can increase your accuracy. It can also make it work. If you have something that works then you might want to keep that. Of course it does not hurt to play and try different things.
