Abstract A sabot (1) for use with a spin stabilised projectile comprises a closed front end portion (6) having lines or strips of weakness (11) running along sides of the sabot which meet at a front end surface (6) of the sabot, thereby providing a continuously extending line or region of weakness across the front end surface. Preferably, the sabot front end portion has at least three, desirably four or more, lines or strips of weakness (11) running along the length of the front end portion. These lines or strips may meet at an intersection of lines or strips at the front end surface, but they preferably meet at a front end membrane region (15). Discarding sabots according to the present invention are especially suitable for use with tubular projectiles. These projectiles may for example be used in training ammunition rounds which are suitable for firing from the UK 30mm RARDEN (UK Registered Trade Mark) Gun.
