It smokes the newly reconfigured 155 Palma SMK as well. I shoot the Scenar by the jazillion and my elevation erector's have no bias built in.

As an aside,Scenar terminal affects are far more reliable than the oft touted SMK,espoused by the Mall Ninja Faction. The Scenar's faux nosecone,is a simplistic and effective approach to increasing projectile length,while adding a favorable BC profiling to a given weight.

I much prefer V-Max and A-Max upon Critters,to the oft touted NBT. Prefer Scenar's to them as well.

Lapua BC's are spot on,as a minimum.........................
Rifle Looney, I mean Relentless Pursuit, I mean Trump Card with all due respect I will take Brian Litz evaluation of BC below, along with the evaluations of top competative shooters to your opinion based on the manufacturers claimed BC only.

As I mentioned earlier when a bullet BC is that far from the norm one should take those claims with a grain of salt.
