I’ll be loading the 139 Scenar for my 6.5 Creedmoor. I’ll be using H4350, Hornady brass, and BR2 primers. My question is for those of you who have loaded this bullet. Is it sensitive to seating depth in relation to the lands? In the past I’ve loaded 143 ELD-X with good results .005 off the lands. Just wanted to see what your experience has been with the Scenar.

IME, not as sensitive as VLD’s.

Generally they’re really forgiving.

Yep in a Tikka T3x loaded to the magazine length 5 into less than an inch.

Too easy

Yep.

One contributor wrote that the Scenar is sooooo easy...

He's right.

I run them in a .260. Not overly sensitive to seating depth.
