the 250gr SSTs are 45 cal that i shoot in my 50cal.then i bought some 200gr Shockwaves and they are longer than the 250gr SSTs.the caliber is smaller than 45 and i think its smaller than 44.these Shockwaves came with purple sabots.what caliber are the bullets?i hope they shoot as good as the 250gr SSTs.anyone know?

Sometimes BETTER! Using my Knight Disc Elite .50 I've shot four consecutive three shot groups that AVERAGE 0.96 inches using 200gr SSTs and 100gr ffg 777. Also shot three consecutive 3-shot groups using 120gr ffg 777 and the 200gr SST with the same rifle.

Sunday i am going to shoot some of those .40cal 200grn Shockwaves
in my .50Cal Encore. I will let you know how they shoot in my gun.

100grns 777 Loose, the first group sprayed. Shot this group with pellets
and that wasn't bad at all.

i have had very good groups with a real hot load of triple 7 loose and the 250gr SSTs out of my Knight Rifle.i hope the 200gr shock waves shoot as good or close to the 250s.if i can shoot the 200s at a max or close to max load i will hunt with the 200gr Shock Waves.i sure am keeping my fingers crossed on the 200gr bullets.off to the range again soon
