Default 45 70 sabot loads

quite a few years ago when the 45 cal 10 mm sabot came out .Icouldnt get to the reloading bench fast enough . Ihave shot thousands of them since . Accuracy is great 1 inch 100 yds 200 yds is a chip shot . Trap door powder charges with 272 grn bullets do 2175 fps . Makes for a great hunting load light recoil . Could easly go faster ,but no need . What it realy comes down to ,i now have a 405 win with out the cost of new gun .
