Lapua 155 Scenar and 155 Scenar L

Really? There's a description here:
Products - Lapua

Admittedly Lapua does not properly list the differences in BC on their sight, if indeed there is one, but I know that the two guys at our club who use the 155 Scenar-Ls swear by the improved performance they get with them.

Here's a quote from accurateshooter:
Lapua’s Scenar-L bullets are extremely consistent in weight and dimensions. In our tests, the 6mm 105gr Scenar-L proved to be as uniform in weight and base-to-ogive length as any factory bullet we’ve ever measured. Scary consistent. Now there is a full line-up of Scenar-L bullets in .224, 6mm, 6.5 mm, 7mm, and .308 calibers. Yes, that’s right, Lapua now makes a 7mm match bullet. In fact, Lapua makes two: a 150-grainer and a big, high-BC, 180-grainer.

And from the Lapua website:
Lapua has recently undertaken a daunting task; to make the best even better. We’ve combined both our experience and our state of the art manufacturing capabilities to further refine the tolerances on our match winning Scenar bullet. The product of this process is the new line of Scenar-L bullets. Drawn to even tighter standards of jacket wall concentricity, weight variation and dimensional uniformity, this new line takes our well known reputation for quality to the highest level we’ve ever produced. The new Scenar-L, the ultimate match bullet!

Plus, I know that on the .260 136gr Lapua Scenar-Ls I shoot there is an improvement in the ogive that almost looks as if they have been pointed.

That's as much as I know, so far.
