Is that an older bullet, or has he re-evaluated the published BC in much the same way he did to the 155 Scenar, when lapua claimed it was .508?

Litz gives real world G7 BC's. I have a copy here and can check numbers if you need any information.

Many thanks. Tbh I'll Have a look at the 175 as and when I come across a box, but given the scenar's price, I'll try that and the Berger for the time being.

Also, has anyone heard anything on the new Hornady HPBT match? Meant to be .530 at 178gr which seems reasonable.

The Hornady high BC Match are quite popular down under and I know of a couple of people shooting the new .284 162 grain bullets which are based on the same principle to good effect.
