I'd stick with the SST in a sabot. They'll be harder to load but should be more accurate.

SST gets my vote!
Havnt had good luck with fpb, seems like the skirt on them doesn't expand to seal off the powder charge sometimes.

I shot the FPB for 3 years before I switched to smokeless last this year.I loved the bullet,it never let me down,in 3 years I think I killed 5 deer with it,and all was pass thrus with good blood trails. And it gave me a 1.5 to 2 inch group at 100yds all day long with 2 777 pellets (100gr)
