Scenar L`s

They have been around awhile now.
Any one with real world experience with the 6.5 versions at a 1000 and beyond?
I use 123gn scenars so far at a 1000 - and for me in my standard AI - they work pretty well.
I suspect that in this particular rifle the L`s may not show any benefit.
Or would pointing the 123`s be the way to go?

6,5x47 Lapua and Accuracy International - I tried the 136 L's at 1000/1200 and they were OK however I went back to the 123 pointed and batched as they seem to work better (For me) albeit with slightly less weight they will be more susceptible to wind however it is a 6,5 so to be expected. Best I shot with pointed 123's was four consecutive shots in an F Class bull at 1200 yards (Barton Road) the fifth and final shot fell slightly right in the five much to the delight of those with me :)
