jtallen83 Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I shot a box of this ammo out of my 16 inch 1/10 twist Matrix build today with decent results. I fired five round groups, 1 at 100 and 3 at 200 yards, getting 1 1/2 MOA without taking my time. There was no wind but it was 40 degrees and in a downpour so conditions were not optimal. The box claims 2854 fps so it is right there or past M80 ball but with a .430 BC. Looks like it would be a pretty good hunting round. It is a bit pricy at the LGS here, $27 a box, but I picked up another to try again at 300 yards on a fair weather day. http://www.outbackammo.com.au/308-win-150gr-swift-scirocco-ii-bts/ http://www.swiftbullets.com/products-s/1819.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
survivalshop Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 They do make good Bullets , big $$ , but good long range Bullets . Try to get some Chono results , I would like to see how consistent they are . Velocity will differ from box because of your 16" BBL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtallen83 Posted March 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 No chrono, it will be some time before I get one. Being out on the road I don't get any reloading time at home and barely have enough room to haul the gear I need to keep shooting while on the road. Someday I'll retire, go whole hog back into reloading, and get a chrono but for now the results on the paper is all I have to judge from.
