Saboted ammo for 7.62x39

[jimdana1942]

I have a single shot 7.62x39 rifle and am wondering if there is a commercially produced saboted, high velocity varmit round available or if anyone knows anyone that can handload some rounds. I know years back I bought some for my .30-30 and thery had a velocity near 4,000 fps.

I want to say Remington made them. They were called Accelerator rounds. I saw some .30/06 that were loaded w/ .223 projectiles. Interesting idea, but I hadn't heard much about accuracy.

The accuracy from the sabots suck. If you want an accurate varmint round, buy a varmint caliber rifle.

Who makes your rifle?

You could paper patch .223 rounds or .17 rounds.

How do you paper patch?
