Default Anybody know Federal Barnes Sabot Slug speeds

I've decided to try the lighter faster sabot slugs that the manufacturers are selling know. I've tried the Win Platinum Tip, Win. Partition GOld, Rem Coreloct, and the Federals. The golds and the Federals shot about equally but I seemed to notice less recoil on the Federals. I'm wondering if this is because they are slower or not. The winchester are suppose to be 1900 fps but I can't find any info on the Federals.Thanks for any help.
