Not Accurate, Not LethalI use a CVA Wolf, .50 cal; Powerbelts are the recommended sabots, which is hard to believe. I was using two 50 gr. WhiteHots and the 295 gr. lead hollowpoint sabot. At the range I couldn't even manage 3 inch groups at 50 yards. The load would pancake on a paper target. This sabot almost cost me a nice 8-pointer the first day of VA muzzleloader season. The bullet pancaked and fragmented on impact with minimal penetration--there was no exit hole. Switched to Shockwaves and am now shooting MOA groups at 100 yards. The difference is night and day.

Powerbelt vs. Sabot bulletI have been using sabots in my muzzleloader for years. Although they performed acceptably, they reloaded very hard after the barrel was a bit fowled from shooting.
I tried the powerbelt bullets and decided to give them a try this year after taking them to the range and repeatedly shooting them with the same powder as my sabots. I found they were equally accurate but loaded much easier after the first shot out of the barrel. The idea of shooting a full 50 cal. vs. 44 cal. also appealed to me.

Should be illegalThis last weekend I shot TWO really nice muley bucks with a 348 grn powerbelt. One at 80 yards the others at 50. Both good broadside chest shots. One of the shots was FILMED. Evidence is clear. Neither deer went down. No blood. Just walked/ran away, clearly wounded. I can't believe these bullets are so useless. I'm sure the coyotes got both of the deer. I looked for 3 days. Put my gun away and didn't hunt any more. Completely sick over those deer suffering and knowing they'd die a terrible death. I'll be looking for a conical that actually kills. Don't buy these conicals. I read the other reviews when I bought the powerbelts and thought those reviewers just can't shoot.....sorry guys, I was wrong. I should have listened.

Powerbelt 295 gr. copper plated hollow pointI have used these bullets for years now and I'm very happy with their performance. I never had to chase a deer, if they didn't drop right away, they only went 30 - 40 yards. I'm using a CVA Accura rifle with a Leupold VX-1 3x9 scope loaded with 100 gr. of triple 7 (2 - 50gr. pellets). I sight it in for 0 @ 50 yards and you can hold there pretty much out to 125 yards.

Good BuyI shopped many places trying to find everything I needed in one place. And who would have thunk that I would have found all in one place. That place was, is, and will be my place to shop for black powder supplies.
That place is
Bass
Pro
Shops
On my score card I give them an A+
Thanks and appreciate it.

can these bullets be used in a kentucky rifle
Asked by: budman48
You "could" fire them from your Kentucky rifle but with a fire arm that is designed to shoot round balls with patches, I would go that route compared to a belted bullet.
