I am way late getting in here but if I were going to suggest a bullet/sabot combination - the bullet would be a 250 grain Speer Bonded Gold Dot. I shoot with 100/110 grains of T7-2f, but that could easily be backed down.
I think your last post, at this late date in the hunting season,is probably the way to go right now. The 295 with that reduced powder load will work 9 out of 10 times on a whitetail and should function here just fine.
Good luck in the hunt...
