Saboted sub-caliber bullets in rifled barrels are known for high velocity, not for high accuracy.

Perhaps for the 300 WTF, but the 300 AAC BLACKOUT will do 2400+ with 110 grains from a 16 inch barrel at normal pressures.

I played with some in a 308 win a while back with 55, and 68 and got around 4" @ 100 yds
