    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.

    Why not? I made a few for the 38 and they work fine. I haven’t trie for accuracy yet but will next week just for fun. Quite slow to print but left on overnight produces 40 or so at a time.

    OK, interesting. I've got a couple of tubs of the old Sabot Airgun ammo, I remember they weren't very consistent accuracy wise.
