Bronco, what will you be hunting and what ranges? I have used the Lehigh/Bloodline for several years now and they have been a consistent performer for me.

Just as a thought... I have always called the .458-275 grain Lehigh/Bloodline the best all-around bullet of the bunch, as with its weight - velocity it can be used to harvest most everything. I would say it certainly is an over kill for deer but in the case of a big Muley buck or to even anchor a big Whitetail buck you would be in the ball park.

The question will be "How tight is the Accura Bore"... will it accept a .458 sabot. If it might be as tight as some have suggested you may be locked into the 44-45 cal bullets that offer a wider variety of sabots...
