making Sabots for slugs
does anyone here make their own sabots for slugs, or bullets of any type to be used in a slug gun with rifling.

Lyman makes a Sabot slug mould that produces a hollow base slug that looks like a large...
...ok, ENORMOUS, "air rifle pellet" and it is intended to be used with standard shotgun wads and star crimped into common shotshells.

Seems like as good a way to go as any other...
IF you are into casting.
