Description
Swift's high-grade hunting ammunition combines precision manufacturing with proven bullet performance. Each round is hand-crafted and inspected with tolerances that exceed SAAMI specs, giving you factory loads you can rely on for serious hunting situations.
Scirocco II Design for Demanding Conditions
The Scirocco II with Signature Black Tip handles the full spectrum of hunting scenarios. Its polymer tip improves ballistics and triggers expansion even at long-range impact velocities, while the bonded copper jacket stays intact through close-range impacts. That bonded construction delivers over 70 percent weight retention, meaning the bullet holds together for deep, consistent penetration rather than fragmenting on impact. The tapered jacket and boat-tail base create a sleek aerodynamic profile that maintains velocity downrange better than standard designs.
Built for the 270 Winchester
At 130 grains, this weight hits the sweet spot for the .270 Winchester. You're looking at a high ballistic coefficient that produces flat trajectories without requiring magnum-class recoil. The combination of aerodynamic design and bonded construction makes this load versatile enough for deer-sized game at moderate ranges and capable enough for larger game at extended distances where that flat trajectory really matters.
Attention to Detail from Swift
Swift has been making hunting ammunition since 1997 and built a reputation on consistent quality. These rounds feature brass cases with HERNON water-tight sealing and are individually chambered and sized to ensure proper fit in your rifle. Every round ships in 20-count boxes, and the brass is reloadable if you want to reload.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the Scirocco II different from standard bonded bullets?
Swift uses pure copper jackets (no zinc alloy) bonded to a pure lead core. The Scirocco II specifically features annealed copper jackets designed to handle high-impact velocities better than the original design, meaning it expands reliably even at close range without fragmenting or losing structural integrity.
Is this ammunition suitable for hunting elk or just deer-sized game?
The 130-grain Scirocco II can certainly take elk-sized game, especially at moderate to extended ranges where the flat trajectory and controlled expansion shine. That said, many hunters prefer heavier bullets for elk depending on their rifle setup and typical hunting distance. The key advantage here is reliable performance across a wide range of impact velocities.
Can I reload these brass cases?
Yes. The brass is brand new production, HERNON sealed, and meets or exceeds SAAMI specifications. They're boxer-primed and fully reloadable, which is valuable if you shoot regularly and want to reduce long-term ammo costs.
How should I approach seating depth for handloading Sciroccos?
Scirocco bullets have a unique secant ogive that typically requires different seating depths than other bullets for best accuracy. Most reloaders find success backing them off the rifling by roughly 0.030 to 0.070 inches, though some rifles prefer them set back even further. You'll want to work up loads carefully with your specific rifle to find the sweet spot.
