Need Info on Reloading SST for 12ga
« on: November 14, 2011, 05:16:38 AM »
I handload SST for 20ga and 12ga using Hornady FTX 250gr bullets.I would like to use a 300 gr bullet like the store bought SST.Can you look at these bullets and let me know if they are in fact .452 or .500 300gr bullets

They say .50 cal but that can't be right because they must fit down the bore of a .50 cal muzzelloader.I assume they are .452.Any help please.

I suspect that since diameter and BC data are not shown on Hornady's website you ought to call them at 1-800-338-3220 and ask.

What are you using for 20 gauge sabots?  Are you roll crimping?

Any info and links to what data and suppliers you are using would be appreciated.

Thanks

Lance

I'm stupid. ;D I went back to the hornady website and the info was right in front of me.BTW those bullets in the picture are in fact .452 cal for Muzzy.I found .452 300gr SST bullets on the web.

Lance I use Collet Cup Sabots for 12 and 20 ga.I just rolled crimped 30 12ga sabots for the range in the morning.
