This 308 Win cartridge features a 165 grain Scirocco II. Swift designed their bullet to realize a 0.470 G1 ballistic coefficient so it can fly flat as a board and retain ample deadly energy at several hundred yards. The Scirocco II’s Signature Black Tip is engineered to reduce frontal air resistance to the greatest possible degree. It stirs up even less in-flight drag thanks to its secant ogive profile, rotationally stable long driving band, and boat tail. The Scirocco II ends with a thick base to prevent any deformation during ignition that could harm its sleek profile.
The Scirocco II concludes its straight trajectory with devastating terminal performance. Its jacket and core are bonded to fend off component separation and guarantee a deep wound channel. As the bullet’s polymer tip drives into its lead core’s nose cavity, its progressively tapered jacket guides controlled expansion – even at lower velocities.
Swift’s Scirocco II receives the premium brass, primer and propellant at Federal’s Minnesota factory that it needs to demonstrate its full potential. This elk and whitetail hunting cartridge will deliver 1,500 ft lbs of energy to its target at 380 yards, or 1,000 ft lbs of energy at 622 yards.
