Litz's testing shows a .282 G7 for the Berger 130 VLD and a .285 for the Lapua 139 Scenar. How is that better ballistics?Toney said:Bryan Litz testing showed both 130berger and 130 JLK have better ballistics than 139 scenar
Terminal ballistics is what happens when the projectile strikes the target. The above should read "exterior ballistics."Toney said:so terminal ballistics numbers are not everything
If that velocity can be achived whith the 6.5x47 why does anyone use the 260 or 6.5284? It just seems to be the smarter way to go, plus easier on your shoulder. Haha. Not bashing the 260 or 284.

I agree with what ya. I really like that I can run the 6.5 47 with small primers, less powder and good bullets. I will mainly shoot 600 yards in comp, but just to say I have and I can, I want the extra push to go 1000 yards. Its this or the dasher or the BRX. Cant decide.

well i finally got my SEB NEO, work of art
As of yet no range time so dont know final load thou based on your info i see no reason the 140berger wont work and give close to 2950fps

Bryan Litz testing showed both 130berger and 130 JLK have better ballistics than 139 scenar
Of course results is what counts use which ever shoots best in your rig, Erik shot some smoking scores(record) with 139 scenar...so terminal ballistics numbers are not everything

Toney said:The jest there i believe was due to the small diff in BC, and fact you can run 130 faster equals better terminal numbers
but agin it all about lil holes in target regardless of bullet used
I currently shoot 123scenar thou the 123 amax shot as good n is much cheaper, i have 1k scenar HBN coated to get thru before i switch
