Description
The Thompson Center Shockwave Super Glide Sabot .50 Caliber Fifty Bulk Pack is exactly what it sounds like: a cost-effective, high-volume pack of 50 premium saboted projectiles designed for modern in-line muzzleloaders. It’s built for hunters who want consistent, high-performance terminal ballistics without the hassle of single-pack pricing. I’ve run these through a few seasons, and they deliver the accuracy and knockdown power you need for Missouri whitetail and beyond.
Here’s the thing—when you’re sighting in or stocking up for the season, buying in bulk just makes sense. This pack gives you fifty of Thompson Center’s proven Shockwave sabots, which means you can get your rifle dialed in and still have plenty left for the hunt. At $9.79 for the pack, the value is hard to beat compared to buying smaller quantities.
- Bulk Value: Fifty saboted projectiles in one pack for extended practice and hunting.
- Super Glide Design: Engineered for easier loading and consistent shot-to-shot pressure.
- Shockwave Performance: Features the proven polymer tip and bonded core for reliable expansion.
- .50 Caliber Specific: Designed for optimal performance in standard .50 caliber muzzleloaders.

These are drop-in ready components for your muzzleloader. You pair them with your preferred powder—whether it’s loose Pyrodex or pellets from brands like Hodgdon. The sabots are designed to work seamlessly with most modern in-line systems, which is a huge plus when you’re at the range or in the field. The .50 caliber is the dominant chambering for a reason, offering a great balance of power and manageable recoil.
Who This Bulk Pack Is For
This pack is for the dedicated muzzleloader hunter who understands that consistency comes from practice. It’s perfect for the shooter who owns a Thompson Center rifle like the Impact or Triumph, a CVA Wolf, or any other popular .50 cal in-line. If you burn through a dozen rounds just getting your scope set before the season, and you want to ensure every shot from then on is with the same component, this bulk pack eliminates the variable of switching lots or brands. It’s also ideal for hunters who take multiple trips or mentor new shooters and need a deep ammo box.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The primary advantage is straightforward cost savings per projectile. You get a known, reliable performer in the Shockwave design. The Super Glide sabot genuinely makes loading smoother, especially after a few shots. Having 50 identical bullets ensures your point of impact won’t shift because of component variation.
Cons: It’s a bulk pack, so you’re committing to one bullet type and weight. If you discover your rifle doesn’t like this particular load, you’re left with a lot of them. Always test a smaller pack first if you can. Also, remember this is just the projectile—you still need to supply powder, primers, and sabots (which are included here on the bullet).
Frequently Asked Questions
