[QUOTE="cross, post: 190350, member: 8592"] Why don't the 150 Sciroccos get more attention? Last year I developed accurate loads with 168 Bergers @2960 fps and 160 Accubonds @3040 fps and discovered that neither of them could carry water to the 150 Sciroccos @ 3166 fps. The Sciroccos didn't shoot as well as the Accubonds but dropped 60" less at 1000 yds and shot better and bucked the wind better than the 168 Bergers with approximately the same amount of drop. I like the Accubonds and the Bergers but feel that Sciroccos aren't given enough consideration. Give them a try. I often use 7RM loads to start in my 7WSM (due to a lack of data) so I have no reason to believe that the reverse wouldn't be true. My pet load is a Fed GM215M behind 62 grs of H4350 pushing on a 150 Scirocco. [/QUOTE]
