[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1820078, member: 30902"] I've shot a bunch of the Sirocco's. The jackets are too soft and they have a tendency to over expand badly flattening out like a fifty cent piece. When they do, there's absolutely no predicting where it will go. I've had them penetrate a couple of inches and turn 90 degrees or more failing to do any serious internal damage. I had one fired from a .260 that hit a little low on a small white tail buck deflecting off of his sternum and shooting straight up through his spine. Unfortunately I had a few fail on dangerous game and got a good education on why they call them "dangerous game". They shoot great but are way too unpredictable. Better choices are expanding monos, accubonds, accubond LR's etc. [/QUOTE]
