Premier® AccuTip Bonded Sabot Slug

Power Port™ Tip delivers dramatically superior accuracy

Spiral nose cuts and proprietary bonding technology control expansion at all ranges from 5 to 200 yards

Huge .58-caliber slug is the largest tipped slug available today

Over 95% weight retention – weighs more after impact than all the others start with!

Slug jacket made from high-strength cartridge brass

Designed for use in fully-rifled barrels only

The part I question is the jacket is made out of brass, how well is this to clean out of the rifled barrels?

Since the slug is wrapped in a plastic sabot, the brass will never touch the rifling of the barrel.
