Range Report Lapua 139 Scenar versus Berger 140 Match Hybrid Target

[338LM]

My 6.5 x 47 has been teethed on 139 Scenars. My stick does shoot them quite well at long distances. For those that have shot the Scenars and have started shooting the Berger 140 Match Hybrid Target bullets, are you happy with their performance? Are they performing to the point that you have switched to them and you are not shooting the 139 Scenars any more? Are the Bergers shooting flatter and better in the wind than the 139 Scenars? Are they meeting the advertised .618 B.C.?
Please share your experiences and opinions of the 140 Match Hybrid Target bullets in comparison to the 139 Scenars.

Past 1,000 yards, the 140 hybrid blows away the 136L, 139, 140 amax, 142 smk and on and on. While other bullets are starting to "jump around" in the transonic range... The hybrid just keeps on going. It even blows the 140 vld away.
I have shot pretty much all the match grade 6.5 bullets and the ONLY bullet that comes close is the 140 JLK

Thanks for the info Aimsmall55. What caliber are you using, and how fast are you pushing the 140 hybrids?

136 L did pretty good fro me out to 1,500 yards. I've had no problems w/ the Hybrid either, but I don't feel that the hybrids just blow it away. I get good velocity out of the 136gr as well.

About 2825 with h4350 and 2900 with r17.
Diesel, maybe "blow away" was not the right way to put it. How's this.. The Hybrids shot "a good bit better at LR" ?
