A poke at 673 on a yote is darn good shooting! Glad that March Madness is about to kick in, take my mind off wanting to get out and play.

Father and son team with a pair of mule deer bucks shot with 155 scenars from their 30/06's. One shot each. A good bud of mine with a nice 7X7 bull shot in the breaks with his .308 155 scenars. Both rib shots broadside at 700 meters. The bull never went 10 feet. Another bud with a 360" 6X6 shot at 447 meters with my GAP .308 and two well placed 155's. He shot from the ridge in the upper left corner of the picture. 105gr scenar from a .240 Weatherby. "Old Duffers" came out from Iowa and hunted with me. I told them to leave their rifles at home and I loaned them one of my .308's. This buck was shot at 600 meters with a 155gr scenar.

My .308 on loan again....about 200 meters. Same guy from an earlier pic with a different buck. This one was right at 300 meters broadside. You can see the exit hole.. One of my own. Shot was 470 meters. Bullet went through and left a 1.5" or so exit.

Pat's pictures are going to make me rethink my hatred of the .308. Just what I need another caliber fetish

139gr scenar,.260 Rem. 250gr .338LM from 600 meters. My bud from Whitehorse, YT, hunted with me last fall and killed this buck from the timbered ridge behind him with my .260 and one 139gr scenar. Probably the largest bodied buck I've ever seen. A good bud's girlfriend with her first mule deer buck shot with my "Little .308" and a 155gr scenar..she killed a cow elk with the same rifle earlier that morning at 493 yards if I remember right. Another old, heavy antlered buck we shot this fall with a .308 and same bullet. Big scenar bullet used here.....shoot deer and elk with a .308 and antelope with a damn .338LM.....doesnt make much sense....grin!

How do the scenars do up close? They work well. I believe they have a harder jacket than say a Berger VLD.

530 meters broadside 155gr scenar. 450 meters with same bullet and same exact result. I've got a pal who uses the 155's out of his .30/.338 at 3200+ they work for him too.

Scott, that is a very interesting pic. Lapua just forgot to add 20 grains of lead. Here is an exterior pic from a PM last Summer. Pat, incredible collection of Scenar'd critters!
