    Is thatthe old Remington accelerator ammo?
    I don't think it's been made for a long time.
    The South of England has 2 good things, the M1 and the A1. Both will take you to Yorkshire.

    How about getting some 3D printed, would that work?

    Yes, I get it, 3D printing is obviously a no go.

    I found this: https://www.eabco.net/Accelerator-Ty...0_p_13645.html

    I know it's out of stock at the moment, but you may be able to find some elsewhere.

    Sabot ammunition fascinates me, hence the input.
