[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 897828, member: 51650"] Swamplord I have two friends that swear by the Scirroccos in 300 RUM. Regular 600 yards + success on elk. Swift does 375 but not in the Scirrocco line. I am aware of the development costs but I have wanted that very product, same as you have and I suspect many on this thread. If they came out with a 375 Scirrocco (just typing it gives me chills!) they would plunder the 375 bullet market. Other makers would have to offer rebates... HarperC Hope your neck recovers. Wife in for torn rotator cup surgery in January, six months recovery. May the Holy Spirit intercede in your neck problem. BenchRacer Concerning straight line penetration on game. in my miss-spent youth my brother and I tossed every bullet we could find through every solid object available. Couple of truths we discovered that were later confirmed by the African PH writers in the gun mags: 1) Pointy bullets deflect unpredictably when striking hard objects. APT 172 grain 308's angled off hits like a Que ball on a bank shot. 2) Round nose parallel sided bullets tend to maintain the original path and have less deflection. 3) Wadcutters chop a straight hole through. The 375 Sierra 350 SMK clearly works as reported on this website. African PH's extol the virtues of solids above all other bullet types. Its only those crazy Americans that like their bullets to self-destruct in a controlled fashion. Love this thread! KB [/QUOTE]
