Going to try some abrasive bore cleaner that I have and some steel wool and see if the barrel cleans up any better. Looked at Harvester and MMP for Sabots and see that MMP makes a 50 cal Sabot for .475" bullets (what the 475 Linebaug and 480 Ruger use). Most of my hunting anymore is in central or NE Wisconsin where shots are typically short, 100 yards being a long shot. For those distances, I should just stick to my 54 cal PRB guns. But like I said, I'm a gun looney!
