Precision Rifle's conicals

I haven't tried the PR conicals (yet), but like you I LOVE their sabots - best thing going.   I would expect the conicals to perform every bit as well.  I've only shot the Hornady Great Plains & No Excuses conicals out of my Knight, but found they give good accuracy with about a 10 to 15% reduction in powder charge when compared to a sabot round of similiar weight.

For example, with the 460gr No Excuses conicals, I use 90gr of 2fg 777 to get results like these:

normally I'd use 90gr of 777 with 350gr sabots for best accuracy.

Good luck & let us know how they turn out if you try them.
