The Federal P270SS1 Premium ammunition delivers exceptional long-range performance with Swift Scirocco II bullets engineered for controlled expansion and deep penetration. This premium hunting cartridge combines Federal's precision manufacturing with Swift's proven bonded-core technology to maximize effectiveness on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
The Swift Scirocco II bullet features a polymer tip and bonded-core construction that retains 75-80% of its original weight upon impact. Unlike standard cup-and-core bullets that can fragment, the bonded design maintains structural integrity through heavy bone and muscle tissue. The boat-tail base and secant ogive profile reduce drag coefficient by 15% compared to flat-base designs, extending effective range significantly.
Key Features
- Swift Scirocco II bonded-core bullet with polymer tip for rapid expansion
- 130-grain projectile optimized for 270 Winchester ballistics
- Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and extraction issues
- Federal Premium powder charge delivers consistent velocities
- Boat-tail design improves ballistic coefficient to 0.434
- Muzzle velocity of 3,060 fps with 2,702 ft-lbs energy
- 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 total rounds)
Field performance demonstrates reliable expansion at velocities from 1,800 to 3,200 fps, making this load effective from close quarters to extended ranges beyond 400 yards. The bonded construction prevents jacket separation on heavy-boned game like elk and moose, while the polymer tip initiates expansion on lighter deer-sized animals. Temperature stability remains consistent from -40°F to 125°F operating conditions.
