I have killed with the basic federal sabots. If you have a rifled barrel with a moderate twist you aren't going to benefit much with a super fast round anyway. May I ask what you are shooting these slugs out of?

lots of good slugs out there, Hornady, lightfield, Remingtonm winchester..... I ve never used federal so i really cant say with any certaintly. With slug guns each gun is going to shoot differently so your going to have see what yours shoot best. A cheaper sabot that i was really impressed with out to 100 yards (thats all i shot it out too) was the remington buckhammer.

I will second the 20 gauge with Federals.
The goal is to limit your shots to 50 yards or less, which is for the most part the objective of hunting with a shotgun and slugs.
If you was to keep your shots to 50 yards or less, I wouldn't even mess around with sabot's. I would just buy regular old punkin balls.

I shoot winchester 2 3/4 out of a remington 870 12 gauge. They group real nice.. I feel confindent shooting out to 130 to 150 yards. I tried the remington I think sts but didn't have good luck with those

I've shot them ever since. I am not afraid to take a 150yd plus shot, if conditions are right.
