Remington Accelerator ammunition

[Bavarianbrit]

Has anyone ever tried it? Or even can it still be found in the UK? In Germany the possession of such ammo is forbidden due to the .224 bullet not showing any rifling engraving

I've tried it, not as horrific as expected.

I.E. Un-traceable?

Had some in the 1990's, grouped reliably on an A4 bit of paper so useless in my rifle.

The bullet sits in a plastic sabot. So therefore the bullet is never engraved with the rifling marks like a normal bullet.

Correct!

Don't try it with moderator on...

Regarding the traceability of engravings, I'd like to see any definite statements with proper scientific set-up and 100 consecutive firearms from production line of Glock, Sako or similar manufacturer... same thing with fingerprints, the whole thing is elevated to something magic while reality is different (look for figures from e.g. companies implementing biometrical identification)

Especially glock, their polygonal rifling causes issues
