[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1384134, member: 30902"] Stick to bullets you can fully stabilize. I've shot a lot of Sirocco II's and found them to shoot very well, be easy to tune a load for. At high velocity though they can do some really weird things on impact such as flattening out like a quarter or half dollar and track off at obtuse angles instead of passing completely through. At WBY velocities you might be better off shooting a monometal. The biggest problem with the quarter bores is the limited availability of quality bullets. I finally gave up on my 25-06's for just that reason. [/QUOTE]
