My problem with sabots, aside from the outrageous prices, is that to get the same impact performance as a full bore "rifled slug" you have to depend on bullet expansion.
I'd say you were right if shooting a whitetail deer was pushing the limits of shotgun power. In truth, I have shot many deer with both Winchester and Federal rifled slugs, as well as Remington Core-Lokt Ultra Sabots. The difference in killing power, if there is an advantage for either, is slanted in favor of the Core-Lokts.
