I have a new mountaineer. I'm shooting the 250 grain bloodline. I noticed the the petals are coming off the sabots. Is that normal???

Blackhorn 209. 250 grain bloodline. I've tried 120 grains down to 90 and a 3 inch group is the best I can get.
Thanks for the reply....

That sabot not holding up try some harvester sabots in your .452 bullet size. like the crush rub sabot. https://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/pr ... uctId/5465
