Nice recovery. That's good expansion and penetration, more than enough for elk.

I've always had good success with Swift Sciroccos. They have accounted for more than a few head of game. I used them quite a bit in my 7mm RM.

That bullet is one of my favorites... always comes out looking great.

what do you think about this bullet and the shoulders on bigger game. I.E. elk or moose. What's your comfort level?

It's been awhile since I've shot a moose but I wouldn't think twice about it. I don't know if it would exit but I think it would bust through the shoulder and scramble some soft tissue in the engine room, and probably exit the chest cavity.

I used this bullet for some years in my 7RM. It accounted for a number of elk and moose; never had a failure.
