[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 515812, member: 24624"] Don't throw the Sciroccos away. But, I think you should consider some other bullets. I never understood what you meant by "analyzing the holes in your targets?" Are the Sciroccos key-holing? Or, are the groups larger than you'd like to see? What sized groups are you getting and at what distance? What distances will you likely take shots when hunting? Stay away from the all-copper bullets. They are longer than comparable weight lead core bullets and hence need a faster twist. Some you might want to consider... speer 100 Grand Slam SP 1.040" (BC=.351) 100 Spitzer BTSP 1.050" (BC=.430) Sierra 100 Pro-Hunter 1.041" (BC=.373) Nosler 100 Partition 1.065" (BC=.384) Hornady 87 V-Max 1.037" (BC=.400) 100 Spire Point 1.062" (BC=.381) Barnes 85 TSX 1.061" (BC=.333) -- richard [/QUOTE]
