Need to borrow a few Sirocco to test, I've tried them in my 5R .223, never got the accuracy I was used to in that gun, it shoots 77SMK's really good.

That Accubond sound good. I need a heavier bullet. Probably end up using my 6.5 for my trophy hunt but the .22 would be fun for my culling hint.

Ive used the 75gr sirocco II to take game as tough as nilgai, but it wouldnt be my first choice for a nilgai. Deer and pig i wouldnt hesistate. My friend dropped a 140lb to 150lb boar with my 62gr nosler FBHP varmageddon load this weekend. It wasnt an instant kill, he kicked for a minute or so, but dropped him right there. Opened him up and basically exploded vital area impressively for a .224 dia bullet. More often than not if you push the bullet at the right speeds in relation to bullet construction and you have good shot placement even a core-lokt, which isnt the deadliest mushroom in the woods, will do the job.
