Default Harvester vs. Hornady sabots

I'm about to try some new bullets in my CVA Optima pistol this year, but they don't make a combined bullet/sabot pack like Hornady does with its XTPs. Looking at Midway, I noticed they have two brands that sell packages of just the sabot - Harvester and Hornady. Which brand do you guys prefer?

I'm going to be using the .451" 200 grain Barnes XPB, by the way.

Use the Harvester smooth black "short" (for upto 300gr bullets). Grafs has a better price btw. Around $6/50 at Grafs and flat rate shipping.

Hornady .452 300gr. XTP, black crushrib sabot, 80gr. BH209 in my Optima V2 pistol is extremely accurate for me.
