Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Long Range Hunting Expansion characteristics of the Lapua Scenar, 155 gr. .308 ?

The 155 SJ(silver jacket) is just a fancy name for moly coated. There would be no difference on expansion.

My opinion is the scenar will out penetrate the Berger Hunting VLD.

As far as "raking shots" are concerned, I probably wouldn't try it on elk sized critters, but I don't really like that shot with any bullet on larger big game animals. Only my opinion.
