The Thompson Center Shockwave Super Glide is one of those muzzleloader bullets that earned its reputation the right way, by putting deer on the ground season after season. This .50 caliber load pairs a 250 grain bonded spire point projectile with a polymer tip, bringing centerfire-style bullet technology into the muzzleloading world. The bonded core keeps the jacket and lead married together as the bullet drives through hide, shoulder bone, and whatever else stands between you and the vitals, and it expands to over twice its original diameter for a serious wound channel. If you're chasing deer, elk, moose, or bear, this is a projectile built to hold together under pressure.
The real headline here is the sabot itself. Unlike the common four-petal designs, the Super Glide uses a two-petal setup made from a slick synthetic material, and it's the first sabot that genuinely loads with one hand. That matters more than it sounds when you're sitting in a cold stand or trying to reload quietly. The two petals support the bullet for solid rotational stability down the bore, then peel away cleanly at the muzzle so nothing drags on accuracy. These sabots are also built to take the heat of magnum powder charges, so you can load them up without worrying about the sabot giving out.
Accuracy is where a lot of folks fall in love with this bullet. Plenty of hunters report tight groups at 100 yards out of rifles like the T/C Omega, Encore, and similar inlines, and it's just as happy punching paper as it is in the woods. The polymer tip does double duty, boosting the ballistic coefficient so velocity holds downrange while also driving back into the bullet nose to kick off fast expansion on impact. One thing worth knowing: sabot fit is rifle-specific, so if your bore runs a little tight the Super Glide tends to shine, and if it's on the loose side you may want to test a few loads to find your groove.
Each 30-count pack gives you plenty of rounds for load development at the range plus a full season of hunting, and every projectile ships ready to go with its Super Glide sabot already matched up.
Yes. Every bullet in this 30-pack ships with its Super Glide sabot already included, so you're ready to load right out of the box. This is a complete bullet-and-sabot package, not sabots sold on their own.
This bullet is built for big game and does its best work on deer, with plenty of hunters taking elk, moose, and bear with it too. The bonded core and thicker jacket keep the projectile together when it hits heavy shoulder bone, and it expands to over twice its diameter for a strong wound channel.
The Super Glide uses a two-petal design made from a slick synthetic material, which is the key to loading it with just one hand. The two petals support the bullet for good rotational stability and break away cleanly at the muzzle, which many hunters find delivers excellent accuracy. It's also built to handle magnum powder charges.
The Super Glide is designed for .50 caliber inline muzzleloaders and performs well across popular models like the T/C Omega and Encore. Sabot fit does come down to your specific bore, so if your barrel runs tight this load tends to shine, and it's always smart to test a few groups at the range to confirm how it shoots in your rifle before the hunt.
