The Remington Premier Scirocco 6.5mm Creedmoor 130-grain load (Remington part no. 29344) is a 20-round box of bonded, polymer-tip hunting ammunition built around the Swift Scirocco Bonded bullet. Remington publishes a muzzle velocity of 2750 fps for it, with 2183 ft-lbs of muzzle energy and a ballistic coefficient of .547. The bullet combines a polymer tip and a boat tail base with a progressively thickening, heavy-based pure copper jacket that is bonded to the lead core, and Remington says that jacket retains over 75% of the bullet’s weight at all velocities. Remington lists the intended use as big game and long range, so this is the box for a hunter who wants a bonded bullet rather than a plain soft point. That makes it a direct fit for a 6.5mm Creedmoor hunting rifle.
