Cheep sabot slugs
« on: October 15, 2009, 03:00:42 AM »
I just found an outlet selling them, at what I consider, pretty reasonable. Has anyone used them?



Winchester XP3™ Sabot Shotgun Slug 7.99 a box.

 http://www.winchester.com/products/catalog/shotdetail.aspx?symbol=SXP12


I've been Using the Super-X for a few years, buying a small quanity every 3 - 4 yrs. Well, this happens to be the year I'm in need. Supers have went up over 3.00 per box since I last bought them.



I just hung a scope on the ol' Mossy. Semi sighted in. So adjusting for a different sabot wouldn't be a big deal.



Been thinkin seriously about carrying the muzzy this year, but it's pretty handy having that follow up shot when your jump shooin deer.

Thats $20 below msrp.  Thats a good price.  You should buy them out if that slug works well out of you gun.

Yeah, if and when you find someone selling those at $7.99/box be sure to post where they are selling them for that price! MSRP is over $27.00/box.

I might be able to see that pricing if they were some kind of older and discontinued slug they were trying to move out of their inventory and off the books. But I think what you found probobly involves a typo.

BTW those XP3 slugs have very impressive energy.

They sold like hotcakes. Went over the same day I posted the thread. All gone. Dang-it!
