RE: swift scirroco
My 7mm RUM is a 700 LSS with tapered barrel and muzzlebrake. I shoot Scirocco's exclusively and have 1/2 minute groups. I'm not loading it too hot though. Bullets kill everything I've hit with it on the spot.
To the guy who posted his 25 yard shot ruined the meat; You aim for the head at that close range to minimize meat damage with any caliber, imho. That close and you were critical of bullet failure? I feel the bullet was lucky to not vaporize out of a 7mm RUM! The deer was euthanized very quickly and if you're worried about meat damage take a different caliber, take a differnt shot angle or wait for a longer distance.
