[QUOTE="Chadp82, post: 2576075, member: 114151"] I can’t speak to the heavier ones of your caliber, but out of my 280 Rem I have had good success with 150 Scirocco and 140 Accubond. Not exactly apples to apples, but maybe helps. In 150 7mm swifts, did the trick on deer and elk. The only reason I switched to 140 AB was a little more velocity and I like to experiment with loads. I found a great load in the 140 AB and have stuck with it since. Great groups and performance on game with both. Don’t think you will go wrong with either. I have read and experienced the scirocco is a little more temperamental on load development, but if you get it dialed in, great bullet. The temperamental part is seating depth. The AB seemed more forgiving on seating depth. I like to start at OAL that is SAAMI and work shorter. Scirocco likes more jump. It was easier to hit nodes with the Nosler at standard OAL. I have seen this in both my 280 and 30-06. [/QUOTE]
