Do you by any chance have a velocity reading on the 110 grain load?
It is getting right along at 1940fps with HPH-24....
Sabots a difference.... everybody says everthing can make a difference - so i would think it is possible....
For me over the years the MMP Polymere has been more consistent and forms to the bore easier than does the Harvester, especially in the cold weather - which I know you miss. But the down side is that in really warm weather (75/80* and above) they do get very pliable. So in that type of temps the Harvester might work better... I just shoot slower in the really hot weather.
Off subject.... have you completed your work on making the 'Twelve Days of Muzzleloading' for the season yet????
