Federal trophy copper sabot slugs

[OLD TIMER]

Does anyone know if federal has discontinued the trophy copper sabot slugs?

From all the adds from resellers they are 20% off because they are discontinued. Is that true?

I shoot 20 ga 2 3/4" and got good results with them using a savage 220

When I had a 220 (now sold) it also liked the Remington AccuTip's, either 2 3/4" or 3". While I never tried them in my 220, my 12G Auto 5 with a Hastings rifled barrel likes the Federal blue box sabots, either of those may be an option for you.

tried replying not sure why its not showing but I've ordered 3 boxes from Gagnon sports in Oshawa, hoping they will be a suitable replacement for the Winchester partition gold

I sure hope not. I'm down to half a box in my ammo case. Guess I better order more. I use Federal copper sabot 3" mag in my Rem 870 Hastings Paradox with rifle-like accuracy out 80M.

I searched for a while trying to locate a store that had federal 20 Guage Trophy copper tip sabots for my 220. Found them at Canadian Tire, Durham Centre off Kingston rd. Bought the last 8 boxes they had. There is a new sabot from Federal which I believe is replacing the trophy copper. Federal Freight Train Copper Slug in 12 and 20 Gauge in 3 inch. Gagnons has the 20 gauge in stock if anyone is interested.

Quite simple-if there is a wind of change,why wait?

If you intend on hunting,have a"yearly usage"amount-and can estimate how many years you intend to hunt-buy THAT amount.
If serious about THAT ammo.
Reasons:PRO
They will discontinue MOST good stuff sooner or later.(do not ask me why...but that is the sad track record of many)
Ammo prices will never go down-just go up over time.
No more worries aboiut running dry.
Avoid additional cost $$$$ trying out MANY new stuff,before finding a NEW substitute to your liking.
Reasons:CON
Upfront $....but that is that,the cost will be there in 5 or 10 years too....(if lucky and THAT ammo is still around)

True! Just look at Partition Golds.

On another note I work in a retail store and you wouldn't believe the number of people who come in on the Saturday before the season looking for a particular slug and then being deeply disappointed that we don't have it. We even had one guy who actually said "this happens every year"! TC

I’m down to my last box and a half of partition gold trying different sabots in mean time, Hornady and Browning flew everywhere (2 boxes of each). I picked up two boxes Federal (blue box) and now these freight train ones to test as replacements fingers crossed.

The Oder I place online with gagnons came via UPS today lot cheaper than me driving to them to pick up
