That does sound very cool. Tell me how expensive is it to have barrels rifled. I have a line on a LC Smith .410 for not to much cash that perhaps I could do just that as well sounds just like a great project,now that I'm home and nearing retirement.

Yes your right about not shooting past 100 yds. Actually almost all my shots are 50-75. I use the Light Field slugs, they are superb for accuracy and they have tremendous shock value.

The entire sabot with sleeve travels with the bullet . I have recovered a couple and they still had the sleeve attached. They say that the sleeve is supposed to impart upon impact, but I have never seen one that did. I can tell you that I have never had deer run yet after being hit.They are shaped very much like the Breneke and make a very large entry hole in a deer for sure.

NY is going to experiment with opening up some of our southern counties where I live to rifle hunting for deer, kind of scary as most of the land here is open farm land and vineyards, with rolling hills. I visited Napa Valley and it looks very much like here except we have the lakes.

Northern NY is pretty much heavy timber and brush and you can use rifles there. I'm having a lot of fun with my drilling. Did shoot a doe with it last season, but was disappointed in the performance of the slug (9.3x72r)
