Thread: Swift Scirocco II 25 cal 100gr

about to start load development for my 25/06 and was wondering if anyone else had tinkered with it and had any success?

My Rem 700 XCR grouped these ok with 56/2213 but MV well below it's potential. Any attempt to push them over 3200 blew groups well out. If you need a few more, I know where a part-box might be found! Good luck.

The listed bc by Swift is pure fantasy, have tried them and done the drops - if you have to go bonded core, go the 110 Accubond, if you must have bc, go the 115 Berger.

Me, I go neither, Sierra Prohunter kills Tahr out to 400 and sometimes past there fast and clean. One Swift projectile will buy you four Sierra PH or GK's

Thanks thats just the info I'm after, might just hit you up for the other projectile???? i think I've some ADI 2213SC somewhere too?

I've sent you a PM dealing with the slugs.

Swift Scirroccos are very tough/hard bonded pills, not really suited to a 25cal imo. My choice for 25-06 deer hunting pills is the 117SST and the 120gn Nosler Partition.
