I am going to hunt Colorado where they do not allow sabots. My question is can you use any .475 non sabot bullet in the .52 bighorn?

How would you fit a .475 bullet in a .52 bore without a sabot? The bullet would move off the powder the first time you tilted the barrel down. I cant imagine they would shoot well at all IF the gun would fire correctly.

What you need are 52cal conicals. Parker Productions and Knight sell the same 52cal conical. Some guy on Gunbroker also sells some 52cal conicals.

Knight was selling these. They are made by Parker.
