The silver sabot is for the .458 bullets and the maroon sabot is for .475 bullets

I can share my elk hunting load.... .458-300 gr. Lehigh/Bloodline in the Knight sabot or a MMP Orange sabot (for a 50 cal gun). 120 grains of T7-2f or BH-209, there really is not much difference started by W209 primer... bad medicine!

This would be an outstanding venison getter though... .458-220 Lehigh/Bloodline
