What are penetration characteristics of Swift Scirocco bullets?

Penetration Characteristics in Gelatin Blocks

The penetration characteristics of the Swift Scirocco bullets have been extensively tested in 10% gelatin blocks, which mimic the density and structure of elk tissue. These tests have shown that the Scirocco bullets penetrate to a depth of 24-28 inches at a velocity of 1000 fps. This is a significant achievement, as it indicates that the bullets can deliver their kinetic energy deep into the animal, increasing the chances of a quick and humane kill.

Performance in Elk Tissue

In tests conducted by independent labs, the Swift Scirocco bullets have demonstrated excellent penetration performance in elk tissue. The bullets have consistently penetrated to a depth of 20-24 inches, with some tests showing penetration depths of up to 28 inches. This level of penetration is crucial for hunters who want to ensure a quick and humane kill, as it allows the bullet to reach the vital organs and deliver a swift and decisive blow.

Unique Bonding Process

One of the key factors that contribute to the penetration performance of the Swift Scirocco bullets is their unique bonding process. Unlike other bonded bullets, the Scirocco bullets use a proprietary process that bonds the core to the jacket using a high-pressure, high-temperature process. This process creates a strong and durable bond that prevents core separation, even at high velocities. As a result, the Scirocco bullets maintain their integrity and penetrate deep into the animal, delivering their kinetic energy where it is needed most.
