[QUOTE="MAX, post: 2953, member: 184"] The Scirocco loads like the rest except that it's a bit longer, sooooo it will occupy a tad more case space. Pick your powder etc and go. Due to the length it has a bit more bearing surface as well. Drop down 5-10% below published data for that weight and work up. My limited experience with the bullet says that best accuracy comes with highest velocity, I'd guess due to twist rates and bullet length. Friend of mine uses them in a Ruger #1 in 7x57 AI, and they were not impressive until the 2900-3000fps range. Now we're both impressed.... There is nothing particularly mystical about them. Swift has data in their new manual, perhaps you could try them? [/QUOTE]
