I've made a batch and they look very nice! I need to do a control shoot tomorrow so thought I'd let a few of these off just to see what happens, but I am a little trepidatious.

The slugs themselves are smaller than the bore and will be fired as a sabot in the cartridge's shot cup, when the slugs are pushed into the carts they are a snug fit and they don't rattle around, nor do they press the cartridge walls out. Also I will be using the cylinder choke initially, possibly the half choke just to see if it makes a difference to grouping at close range.

The cartridge is a 2 1/2", the slug is 27g and the gun is steel proofed and rated 3" magnum.

Am I missing anything! Is there something else I need to check before handing it off to someone else and saying 'Here, try this"?
