− | Some caution should be taken with shooting loose sub-munitions, specificaly gravel or stones, with a [[sabot]] behind them - there is a significant probability of them jamming up, and the barrel being overstressed when the sabot tries to keep moving through the blockage, leading to a failure. Always wrap your lose projectiles in something - paper towls, old socks, and plastic bags are all acceptable.
