I'm also shooting the 300 gr XTP, except I'm using a MMP HPH12 sabot, and my experience was very similar to yours. With this particular bullet, accuracy was mediocre at 100 gr, but improved noticeably at a higher charge. In my case, 105 gr BH209.
My cleanup process was this:
Run a dry patch through first to push out any loose crud (read about this here).
Then I used foaming bore cleaner to fill the barrel and let it sit 20 minutes. Ran a couple of dry patches through to push out all the dissolved crud.
Alternated a few times between a brush and a patch soaked with #9.
Finished with dry patches followed by one patch lightly coated with Ballistol.
