Hornady SST-ML .50 Cal Sabot 250 gr SST – 20/Box

Description

The Hornady SST-ML is a muzzleloading sabot assembly engineered for long-range blackpowder hunting and precision muzzleloader shooting. The design pairs a low-drag .50 caliber sabot with a .452″ diameter, 250-grain Super Shock Tip (SST) projectile to improve ballistic efficiency and terminal performance. Hornady sabots fully engage the rifling to keep the SST centered and sealed through the bore, and the Flex Tip compresses on impact to initiate controlled expansion. This package is supplied in convenient 20-count boxes for range use and field loading.
