swift siccorio

[rochelle]

Is this bullet the same make as the accubond? Has anyone shot the siccorio?

I bought as 300 Ultra Mag. I had 200 grain nozzler's and 180 grain siccorio. I was planning an Oryx hunt on WSMR in New Mexico. Was lucky enough to draw a tag. Anyway the nozzler's was not performing well at all. Maybe a 4" group at 100 yards. Started shooting the siccorio and the group tighten to 1". Anyway dropped the Oryx at 500 yards bullet expanded well and had great weight retension. I plan on using these from now on.

I started using Sciroccos two seasons ago, and I am definately sold on them.

I tried them one year. Too much bullet for deer in my opinion;

There is a link at the bottom that will take you to gory pictures of the effect of the bullet on the deer. Since I hunt deer, elk, and black bear I want a more explosive bullet. I've had good luck with Partitions but will switch to Accubonds this year for both my 7mm RM and wife's .270.
