sabots

[hunterburns55]

I have a NEF sidekick and I have heard several ideas about loading sabots, some say to lube them with borebutter, and some say to load them dry to ensure accuracy, any ideas?

I have never used bore butter for sabots.I think that stuff is only for patch and ball.

Joel you're right and its for bullets like the TC maxi-hunter. The old mini-balls would also use this product.

The owners manual for my TC says not to use any lube on the sabot. The theory is that you want the sabot to grip the rifling of the barrel as best as it can in order to inpart a spin on the bullet. The more spin the better stabalization of the bullet.
