I have a Savage F-TR .308 In fact it shoots the Lapua 4PL7073 / Varget hand loads as well as dozens of people said it would shoot.
That said, I ran across a thread where the topic was best .308 bullet. The Scenar was well supported as a great deer bullet
So, If the object is head shooting at 800 yards that seems to add up. I admit to have shooting two deer at close range in the head. My Alaska years were spent with most people head shooting not just the deer but moose as well.

I never liked the ethics or just the way a head shot deer looks. To me it is disrespectful. On the other hand I will not take a body shot on a squirrel.

So is the Scenar a deer bullet because it will expand? What is the lowest velocity that expansion is most likely?
