Default RE: Hornady SST's?

For what its worth, my all around favorite .270 bullet is the 130 gr. Swift Scirocco. They seem to do it all - expand rapidly to a large frontal diameter - retain lots of weight - give adequate penetration - and put animals on the ground in a big hurry. So far, I have shot five elk with this bullet - all in the ribs - only one could even take a step after being hit, and it could only go 20 yards. One of my hunting partners has taken several deer with it, and has had similar good luck.
