    Swift Sirrocos bc

    Hay guys

    Has anyone used the 180grn 30cal Sirrocos?

    How did the bc stack up?
    They have .520 g1 where the 178 amax is only .498

    Cheers

    BC on Sirrocco's is appealing, but they are too stout for a long range pill. Great for up close out to mid ranges (2000 fps) but you need something more frangible like AMAX for effective long range killing. Yep, they're expensive too.
