Default knight/barnes or t/c shockwaves?

I have a knight master hunter that i'm not overly happy with accuracy wise. i have shot it for about 4 years now and haven't really found "the load". i started using the knight 250gr. red hot with 100gr. 777 pellets (black box). i then switched to the knight 245gr sbt and 100gr 777 pellets. now the last i tried was the new 245gr sbt e z load with 100gr 777 mags (red box).
i was talking with a guy the other day that said that he read that the all copper bullets didn't group as tight as say a shockwave do to the fact that the copper won't give or conform to the rifling. and the boat tail design is not good in a sabot because of the gap at the tail end left between the bullet and the bottom of the sabot. a flat wall buller that sits flat against the sabot will be better for accuracy. and if its made of a softer core it will catch the rifling better and be more accurate.
what you thinik?
