Guys asking about using 585 CEB bullet in our 12ga super sabot. Here is picture, We just took off the bottom band and couple middle bands on the CEB and it fit perfect in our 12ga sabot, which uses .575" slugs. Hollowpoint one pictured 700gr in the sabot loaded in brass case. Can be used in plastic case with a special made hollowed out long roll crimper. Getting some more interest in our 585HE. An application for our 585 HE is for guys with old military 14.5mm PTRDs, to use our case with chamber insert. In many places 14.5 cases are scarce, real expensive, as well as most 14.5mm cases being steel are not the easiest to resize/reload. Our case sizes like regular cases and can be easily reloaded many times. And a PTRD with almost a 5 foot long barrel could get 650gr spitzer bullet to about same speed the 14.5mm gets a 900 gr using 3 times as much powder. About 3300 fps. Or get a 900gr at 2800. Great possibilities for fun shooting. For tactical use in a place where it would be useful to reload in the operations field, where steel cases are scarce. 100 of our cases do over 2000 reloads. I like Enfields to put our 585HEs in, for reasonable cost guns, the actions once sporterized are one of the longest for long cases. . Here is inexpensive way to fancy up the Enfield Bolt handle by cutting the dogleg part of the old handle off and welding on inexpensive contoured handles I found, one of which is like Ruger 77 handle, the one on the right . Something even a novice like me can do..... A lot of guys are crazy about CEB bullets. Here are light 450gr ones in our 24ga FH. That hollowpoint can range in weight 450gr to 700gr depending on how much we cut off the back.. The 24ga FH brass case is nice complement to our 585HE, for shotgun only deer hunters that want a .585" caliber, and easy to find big bore bullets.... Ed |
