Richard, How much can you take off the sst before you go through the copper?

I have just cut a few for testing Tuesday. I cut just enough off to make them look like the XTP bases.............and I am not thru to the core? I believe in the past I have gone right to the .40 diameter with out cutting thru. Richard

I've shot both "old" and "new" and they perform indistinguishably in my gun. What load / speed combo? They shoot decent at mild loads put soon as I try to get anymore from them they open up groups quick! But still do not shoot as good as the old ones for me at either end of the spectrum. Tried posting before but it's not here? 15/58 AA5744/H322 duplex 2770 fps...2 wool wonder wads, my sabots have never looked at all stressed by this load.

Because people here told me to use wads to protect the sabot and help prevent blowing them and that's what I had on hand. Since it worked and my shooting time was limited last year, I never bothered to try without them. They're cheap.
