Scenar bullet failure! No really, it was bad.

[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 104776, member: 2852"] Here is a pic of a .338 250 grain Lapua Scenar pulled out of newspapers and phonebooks at 980 yards. It left my barrel at 3075 or thereabouts. Obviously not a good game bullet at this range. [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/goodgrouper/notgoodbullet.jpg[/img] Here is how far it went in. Tumbling once inside about 5 inches of paper was very apparent but no mushrooming occured whatsoever! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/goodgrouper/newspapers.jpg[/img] And here is another one that skimmed the top of the phonebooks and was laying on top of the burm about 20 yards behind the box. Still no mushroom! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/goodgrouper/bulletsonglove.jpg[/img] Ok, so now to the Accubonds or possibly the MK's. Hope they do a tad bit better! [/QUOTE]
