Thompson Center 9003R SHOCKWV SUPERGLD SABOTS 50 25GR GSPB 15P
The Thompson Center Shockwave muzzleloader bullets are purpose-built for hunters who demand reliable expansion and deep penetration in the field. These 250-grain bonded-core projectiles come pre-fitted with Super Glide sabots, eliminating the guesswork of matching bullet to sabot and letting you focus on a clean, ethical harvest. Designed to handle everything from whitetail to larger game, the Shockwave's thicker jacket and bonded construction keep the core and jacket together through bone and hide, delivering consistent performance across the ranges where muzzleloader hunters actually operate.
What sets the Shockwave apart is its expansion behavior: the bullet mushrooms to more than twice its original diameter on impact, creating the kind of wound channel that translates to quick, humane kills. The premium spire-point profile aids ballistic efficiency, and the Super Glide sabot design means less fiddling during loading—your powder charge, patch, and sabot-to-barrel fit are optimized from the box. Each pack contains 15 rounds, giving you enough to zero your setup and then some.
Whether you're hunting open timber or tighter cover, the Shockwave gives you the ballistic confidence that comes from a bullet engineered specifically for black-powder performance. This is the kind of ammunition detail that separates a successful muzzleloader season from a frustrating one.
