If you use the right sabot it will alleviate your problem.
If you have a very tight TC try the Crush Rib or the yellow 3 petal thin wall. Lee

If you are using bottail bullets be sure you get the right sabot. It may not be true for all guns but when I was doing some testing of those bullets the newer square ended one grouped much better in all 3 guns. Lee

The newer Barnes TEZ comes with a Blue Sabot that is easier to load in the TC barrels and it also comes with the Aero Tip. The TEZ is not a boat tail and you can use the Harvester Black Crushed rib sabot to make loading even easier and still group good. The terminal performance seems to be the same under a wide range of powder charges 80-150 grains 777 anyway.
