Federal Premium pairs the trusted Swift Scirocco II hunting bullet with top-tier components to create a load that performs when it counts. The 130-grain Scirocco II is designed to handle both extended-distance shots and close-range encounters without compromise.
The Swift Scirocco II Bullet Design
This isn't just another ballistic-tip hunting round. The Scirocco II features a bonded copper jacket fused directly to a pure lead core, which provides exceptional structural integrity. The polymer tip reduces air resistance for better downrange energy while initiating expansion the moment it contacts game. You get over 70 percent weight retention through the vitals, meaning the bullet stays together when it counts. The advanced secant ogive nose profile combined with the boat-tail base creates a ballistic coefficient of .571, producing the flat shooting characteristics long-range hunters demand.
Performance Built Into Every Component
Federal doesn't cut corners on the rest of the load. You're getting precision primers inspected more frequently than standard ammunition, clean-burning propellants formulated to Federal's specifications, and nickel-plated brass cases that resist corrosion and feed reliably. The nickel plating also improves case life for reloaders. At 2800 fps from a 24-inch barrel, this load delivers over 2260 foot-pounds of energy, with enough velocity to maintain a flat trajectory well beyond typical hunting distances.
Why This Load Works
The 130-grain weight in the 6.5 Creedmoor hits a sweet spot. It's light enough to launch at hunting-relevant velocities, but heavy enough to carry energy and maintain trajectory against wind. The Scirocco II expands reliably even at the lower velocities you'll see at distance, while the bonded construction prevents jacket separation on closer shots. Whether you're hunting deer-sized game or larger medium-game animals, this ammunition provides the terminal performance hunters expect from Federal Premium.
The Scirocco II features a pure copper jacket bonded directly to a pure lead core, which gives it exceptional structural integrity and over 70 percent weight retention. The bonded construction prevents jacket separation and allows the bullet to expand reliably across a wide velocity range, from low-velocity long-range shots down to 1750 fps all the way up to magnum velocities.
Yes. The 130-grain Scirocco II has a ballistic coefficient of .571, which produces flat trajectories and excellent energy retention downrange. Federal loads this bullet to 2800 fps, which is a solid velocity for the cartridge. The combination gives you effective range well beyond typical hunting distances.
Yes, the nickel-plated brass is reloadable and typically offers improved case life compared to standard brass. The nickel plating improves corrosion resistance and helps cases feed more smoothly through your rifle's action.
Federal designed this load for medium to large game, including deer, antelope, elk, and similar-sized animals. The 130-grain bullet weight and controlled expansion characteristics make it versatile across a range of game sizes, though shot placement remains critical for ethical, effective harvests.
