    Range Report Lapua Scenar 155gr BC transposed with 167gr Scenar

    The thread Lapua Scenar 155gr, wrong BC? almost figured that out. My measurements indicate the 167gr doesn't have a lower BC than the 155gr - Lop-wah just transposed the numbers. The 470 BC claimed for the 167 gr is right on for the 155. The 155 Scenar is a great bullet, but it's not magic...

    155gr Bullets

    I want to develop a load with 155gr bullets for my 300WSM that will serve as long range target/hunting load. I've seen comments on the Lapua Scenar, Serria Palma and 155 gr bullets from other manufactures. Any recommendations on which one might be the better combination bullet?

    155gr SMK Palma bullets

    I managed to go shoot a little today. I was checking a load using some 180gr Nosler BT bullets. I had some loads left over from when I first started loading for this .308. One of the loads used a 155gr SMK Palma bullet- I have had those bullets for a long time. They had the tightest group of...

    155gr. or 175gr.?

    I have been shooting 175gr. SMK in my .308, but was thinking about trying some 155's. I remember a post a while back, where somebody said that they where shooting a 155 load that would come close to the ballistics as a .300 WM as far as wind and drop. I couldn't find it with the search engine...

    "Standard" or proven 155-gr Palma loads?

    I'm looking to get some info all together in one place on 155-gr HPBT loads, starting of course with the "old" Sierra 155. Also interested in any successful loads from those of us on the 'Hide. FWIW, I tried some Lapua 155s over TAC and the OCW over five charges resulted in NOT One Charge...

    Thoughts on 155gr Lapua Scenar .308 bullets

    How do these bullets rank in terms of accuracy? Is there an appreciable difference between moly coated and uncoated?

    Load Interchangeability of .308 155-gr Bullets?

    I'm finding a lot of firsthand reports on 155-gr Lapuas and the occasional A-Max, and I've just finished up a box of Nosler 155s and have access to some Berger 155.5s.... Except for the A-Max, anyone see differences in safe max loads between the various 155s? With both 4064 and IMR 4895, my...

    Loads for trg22 155gr scenar

    I have read the load data on this board for the 308. I have found very few if any that had a trg. I plan on using lapua brass, federal 210m primers, and 155gr scenars. I cant decide on which powder rl-15 or varget . varget seems to be very popular but some say it will burn the throat of you...

    155gr. Scenars andRE15

    It seems the general consensus is that 4895 or Varget is good powder of choice for the 155gr. scenars... I have a boat load of RE15....anyone try it with win brass?? Not so sure how it shoots with lighter bullets..
