Is there any real difference in shooting rifled slugs thru a smoothbore barrel versus shooting sabot slugs thru a rifled barrel?

I've got a few boxes of different rifled slugs to put thru my smoothbore barrel. See what shoots good, what's accurate, and what I like.

Also, why a price difference? Sabot slugs seem to be alot more expensive than rifled slugs. What gives with that?
