Nosler accubond vs Swift scirocco

MGW · #1 10-31-2007, 06:50 PM

Has anybody used these? I shoot a .300 win mag and wanted to pick up something for use on deer and possibly moose. Both seem to only be offered in 160 gr. I've always liked the nylon-tipped bullets. I used to shoot Hornady SST handloads (165 gr) but I'm all out I don't have access to reloading gear anymore and to be honest wouldn't trust them on anything larger than deer.

I just picked up some 9.3 accubonds for my x62...haven't had a chance to shoot any....Husky needs to be glass bedded.
I too would like info on accubonds and sirrocco performance.

Thanks, archdlx.

I use to use the Sirroccos in my 7mm mag and they worked great for long distance shots, very accurate and performed well...but anything under 100 yrds they made a horrible mess of.

I prefer the partitions by far.

The sciroccos shot patterns instead of groups in my rifles,and the copper fouling was extreme.

Go with Winchester Supreme in 180gr Accubonds for your 300WM. Its all you need for4 the 300WMfor moose, elk, deer, bear. I use to use these starting in 2004 when they were released but now started reloading since last season in 180gr AB's
