The only other sabot I have used is the MMP 3 petal. I use it for a reload in case I ever need a follow up shot. I do not need to swab to load. Have never needed a followup with a Nosler,but i reload anyhow.

How hard do you guys usually push this bullet before accuracy starts to fall off. I'm thinking about 110gr of BH209 and a harvester short black sabot in my Endeavor. If this will shoot accurate, it should be deadly on anything that walks here in Florida. What do you guys think? What has been your experience?

Maybe our whitetail are smaller than yours but i have never had a 260 Nosler fail to pass through - from 21 yards to 131 yards... Opps! take that back - I shot one in the brisket a couple of year found it in the left hind quarter, so it wen the whole of the deer and lodged in the hip bone. But any shot at a broadside or near broadside it will pass.
