In this paper, we study the magnetotransport properties of the ferropnictide crystals BaFe2As2 and BaFe1.985Co0.015As2. These materials exhibit a high field linear magnetoresistance that has been attributed to the quantum linear magnetoresistance model. In this model, the linear magnetoresistance is dependent on the concentration of scattering centers in the material. By using proton-beam irradiation to change the defect scattering density, we find that the dependence of the magnitude of the linear magnetoresistance on scattering quite clearly contravenes this prediction. Finally, a number of other scaling trends in the magnetoresistance and high field Hall data are observed and discussed.
