I can't say how it feeds from the magazine. I was loading those to max
OAL (on top of match prep and weight sorting) so I had to feed them by hand (pain in the neck..). Never actually fired enough in a single session on paper I kept, so I can't post what groupings I got - I don't know. They were good though.
150's will drop off and go subsonic before the 168 and 175 will, the 155 scenar is 'special'. It has an unusually high ballistic coefficient for being a much lighter bullet. It basically has the
BC of the heavier match rounds (so it slows down just as fast as they do) but because it's lighter you can get it out the bore faster. Thats what ultimately makes it a long range performer.
Now, it's nothing that could be used for combat. Bullet is almost pure copper. Hell, I've never dissected one though. You can tell the jacket is perhaps 1/8-1/10th of an inch thick, don't know what the core looks like.
