Swift’s Scirocco II ammunition in .300 Winchester Magnum (brand part no. 10042) loads a 180-grain bonded boat tail bullet at 2,919 feet per second for hunters who need one bullet to perform at both close range and far beyond it. Swift builds the Scirocco II around a bonded core and its Signature Black Tip, a combination that produces positive, controlled expansion even at the reduced velocities a long shot delivers, while still retaining high weight and controlled expansion at close-range impact speeds. The sleek, high-BC design carries velocity and energy downrange better than a conventional cup-and-core bullet, giving the flattest trajectory available for a true long-range hunting cartridge. For .300 Win Mag hunters who don’t want to guess their engagement distance before the shot, this rifle ammunition is built to perform at either end of the range.

Frequently Asked Questions
