The bullets in the sabots look like they are all dropped from Lyman moulds and then copper plated.  The style, weights and diameters match up to either 45-70 bullets or 58 cal Minie balls.  They even have the lube grooves on a bullet that is encased in a plastic sabot!  No price information I could find.

The sabots are like the old BRI's that where very accurate because they were two peice. A couple years ago I thought of making some out of Derlin tubing. 12ga. would be easy because the tubing comes in .75"x.50" inside diameter. The inside is ready for 50 cal. bullets and the outside just needs to be milled down to .730". I just never got around to ordering the tubing.
RIP Mike. Died on July 14th, around 2am, with his family at his side, he went peacefully to be with god.
