Default Scirocco 25 cal, WHAT IS TAKING SO LONG

What is taking Swift so long to get the 25 cal bullet. The swift website has had it comming soon for almost a year. I'd like to get a 25 cal rifle but would like more choices in higher qualitybullets.

I, too, have been patiently waiting. Was a little surprised they came out with the 6MM Scirocco first. However, the new .25 caliber will definitely be a Scirocco 2 - which is supposed to have terminal ballistics very similar to the A-frame. I really liked the original Scirocco - stocked up on them in .270 and .30 caliber. Didn't like the 7MM and 6MM Scirocco's as well. Maybe the new Scirocco 2 will be better.

In the meantime, the 110 Nosler Accubond in .257 has been very good from a terminal ballistics standpoint. You might grow old waiting for Swift to come out with their version.
