One of the bullets that's really piquing my interest for heavier game use is the Swift 130gr Scirocco with its .571 BC. Anybody punched critters with this yet?
I have not used that particular bullet yet but have used them in .223, 30-06 and .300 RUM. They are an outstanding bullet for hunting. The 75 gr .223 is the only bullet that's given me consistent pass thrus on large hogs. The jacket is constructed of pure copper, not gilding metal like most bullets. This improves terminal performance and weight retention but makes them a little trickier to get tight groups on paper. I have found they like a little more jump than most bullets.
