Barnes Spit Fire bullets & sabots

[sallee-bo]

Was wondering if the sabots that come with these bullets are compatible to use with smokeless powder. (IMR 4759. 47grains) Any feedback would be appreciated.

I would hazard a guess that it would be fine as long as you stayed in the weight range and powder limits of whoever built your gun, I have shot a bunch of different sabot/bullet combo's in my Savage smokeless.

My gun is a Savage ML ll, the bullet is 285 gr boat tail hp. Sabots are yellow.
