Remington Premier 300 WSM 180 Grain Swift Scirocco II Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Remington Premier 300 WSM 180 Grain Swift Scirocco II ammunition combines proven big-game performance with modern ballistic engineering, making it a solid choice for hunters pursuing elk, moose, and other large game at extended distances. The 300 WSM cartridge delivers flat trajectories and manageable recoil compared to larger magnums, while the 180-grain Swift Scirocco II bullet is engineered to perform from moderate ranges out to where energy and velocity still matter for clean, ethical kills.

The Scirocco II bullet design starts with a precision-molded polymer tip that reduces drag during flight and initiates controlled expansion on impact. A boat tail base further improves ballistic coefficient, minimizing wind drift and drop over distance. The real difference comes in the construction: a progressively thickened pure copper jacket is chemically bonded to the lead core, resisting the jacket/core separations that can plague hunting bullets at high velocity. Remington specifies over 75% weight retention through the bullet's flight and terminal performance, meaning deeper penetration and more consistent results on game.

For hunters who value both accuracy and reliability, this ammunition reflects Remington's long reputation in the loading business. The secant ogive nose profile and tight concentricity mean the bullets fly true—consistency you'll notice at the range and count on in the field. Each box contains 20 rounds, enough for sight-in and a serious hunting trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this ammunition suitable for long-range hunting?

Yes. The Swift Scirocco II's boat tail design, polymer tip, and secant ogive profile all work to reduce air drag and maintain a flat trajectory, making it well-suited for extended-range hunting scenarios where ballistic efficiency matters.

What is weight retention and why does it matter?

Weight retention refers to how much of the bullet's original mass remains intact after impact. The bonded jacket-to-core construction keeps the Scirocco II together through impact and penetration, with Remington specifying over 75% retention. Higher retention means deeper, more consistent wound channels and more predictable performance on game.

What game is the 300 WSM 180-grain suitable for?

The 300 WSM with a 180-grain bullet is commonly used for elk, moose, and other large North American game. The exact effective range depends on your rifle, shooting ability, and ethical shooting standards, but the flat trajectory and velocity of the cartridge support hunting at extended distances where energy is still adequate.

Does this ammunition come with any warranty or performance guarantee?
