I have used the supplied yellow sabot. Sometime ago they switched to a yellow ribbed sabot. The smooth sabots are rather difficult to load.
The bullet/sabot combintion I have were marketed by Knight.
Some fellows have used a small washer under the bullet and tried different sabots. I do not remember the size of the washer.
