This 30-06 Springfield load pairs Swift's 180 grain Scirocco II bullet with a muzzle velocity of 2664 fps and 2838 ft-lbs of energy right out of the barrel. It's built as a true dual-purpose bullet, aerodynamic enough for stretching your effective range but tough enough to hold up on close encounters when a bull steps out at 40 yards instead of 400.
The 180 gr Scirocco II uses a tapered copper jacket bonded directly to its lead core, a construction method that keeps the bullet from coming apart even at high impact velocities. That bonding process is what lets this bullet run upwards of 70 percent weight retention on game, translating to deep penetration and a wound channel that doesn't quit halfway through the shoulder. A secant ogive nose and 15-degree boat tail base round out the profile, giving this bullet a .520 ballistic coefficient that's noticeably higher than a lot of the cup-and-core options in the same weight class.
At 2664 fps out of the muzzle, this load carries enough velocity to trigger the Signature Black Tip's low-velocity expansion mechanism well past 300 yards, so you're not stuck hoping for a pass through on a longer poke. The sectional density of .271 combined with that high BC means it retains energy and resists wind drift better than shorter, blunter 180 grain bullets, which matters if your hunting grounds have any open country to them.
Swift built this bullet for hunters who want one load that covers whitetail in the timber and elk on the mountain without swapping ammo boxes. The bonded core handles quartering shots and heavier bone without the jacket separating from the lead, and the boat tail keeps trajectory flat enough that follow up shots at extended range aren't a guessing game. This round comes loaded on Swift's own cartridge line, using annealed case necks and shoulders along with a sealed primer pocket for weather resistant reliability in the field.
This load is built for medium to large game like whitetail, mule deer, elk, and black bear. The bonded construction gives it enough toughness for quartering shots and heavier bone structure without the bullet coming apart, so it holds up whether you're hunting timber or open country.
The Scirocco II uses a tapered copper jacket that's chemically bonded to its lead core, rather than just crimped or pressed together. That bonding keeps the jacket and core from separating on impact, which is why it holds onto a higher percentage of its weight than typical cup and core bullets.
Yes, the Signature Black Tip polymer tip is designed to initiate expansion even at reduced impact velocities, so it's not just a close-range performer. Combined with its .520 ballistic coefficient, it retains enough velocity downrange to expand reliably well past 300 yards.
This listing is a box of 20 fully loaded 30-06 Springfield cartridges, not bare bullets for handloading. Everything from the brass case to the primer and powder charge is assembled and ready to load straight into your rifle.
