Title: Zinc base for Schenkl sabot
Post by: Jim T on September 11, 2017, 09:34:30 AM

Yes, I'm over here on the dark side of the forum again, don't worry I'll wash my hands after I post this and go back to the lead side.

I had a portion of the zinc base piece for a Schenkl sabot on my website. I sold it along with some bullets to a member of this forum. Sorry, I just cannot remember who at this point. But I did finally remember that I promised to post i pic of a complete one from my collection.  I finally took some photos to post, so here they are.  I'll leave it to you iron heads to discuss.
