As a few have said, they aren't meant for "paper" shooting in competition but they do shoot plenty well accurate for hunting and their terminal performance is pretty dang terrific from what I have seen so far.

Like GM stated earlier, the 220gr .458 Bloodlines loaded tight in my Hawken even with the Orange MMP sabots and they are damn near impossible to stuff down my daughters new TC Impact but they shot well after the blood sweat and tears of loading them. If they would cut them down to .452, maybe adding a couple thousandths to the length for keeping the weight at 220gr, they would have a clear winner!

I'm in one of those retarded states that require a minimum .44 caliber bullet so that leaves me out of the picture for a lot of Lehighs really good BC bullets that are .400 for the .45 caliber owners
