    Prohibited ammunition:

    "Discarding-sabot ammunition (excluding shotgun cartridges)

    Legal Definition:

    "Small-diameter projectiles designed to pierce armour that are placed into
    a supporting plug (a sabot) and then pushed down the bore as an assembly;
    the sabot is stripped off when the assembly leaves the barrel"

    ---

    This law clearly targets armour-piercing projectiles.

    I read that you can have discarding sabot ammo as long as it is not armour piercing, whether rifle or shotgun. Paper patching bullets / boolits has never been made illegal either.
