HIt or miss on whitetails for me and a couple guys I hunt with. These were the 250 and 300 grain versions.
I've not had a DRT there with them, neither has anyone I know that's used them.
It seems we've either had crazy good blood trails, or nothing at all. This is not taking into account a bad or misplaced shot.
The first two deer I shot with them, I swore they'd be the only ML I'd ever use from now on, then the next couple had me scratching my head...seems to mirror what I was seeing and hearing from friends.
Sample size of 12-15 deer, enough for me to switch back to T/C Shockwaves. They have been very consistent for me, exits are not all that common though if they hit bone.\
For what it's worth, the Bloodlines were very accurate in the 4 MLers I've seen them shot in.

Shucks. Here I thought it was a discussion about the Lehigh Valley School of PA long rifles.

A thread on Lehigh Valley long rifles would be nice. Couldn't find the exact bullet but here is the company they are talking about. https://www.lehighbullets.com/product/458-200-458-doa-305gr-hp-2/Would like to see how these do in a Colt 45. The 17 cal. bullets I like, have some 25 cal. loaded but have not used them on game.

You can also buy direct from Lehigh Defense just not the Bloodlines. The copper CF bullets are very nice. Lehigh Defensehttps://www.lehighdefense.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=59&ajaxfilter=f2-gun-type,muzzleloader
