REMINGTON 27936 PREMIER 300RUM 180GR SCIROCCO 20 Rds AMMUNITION PR300UM3
A break-through line of big game ammunition that combines many of the best performance features developed over the last half-century. The remarkable Swift™ Scirocco Bonded bullet which combines polymer tip ballistics with weight retention is unquestionably the most advanced polymer tipped bullet ever to sit atop a factory load. Of course, our precision loading process — using the finest available components — ensures that it’s delivered with quality unmatched by any other brand.The Scirocco cut-away shows how the unique combined design features make our new Premier Scirocco line some of the most versatile and reliable big-game ammunition offered today. The expansion-generating polymer tip and the boat tail base combine to defy air resistance at the front end, and reduce drag at the back. The progressively thickening, heavy-based, pure copper jacket is bonded to the lead core to preserve bullet integrity and retain over 75% of its weight at all velocities. Finally, the bullet’s precise concentricity and secant ogive nose profile produce accuracy you would be proud of in match competition. Premier Core-Lokt Ultra Bonded and Swift Scirocco bullets are in a class off their own. Bonded bullets offers hunters the unique combination of excellent accuracy, superb weight retention and expansion with overall superior terminal results.

Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 300 Remington Ultra Mag (RUM) was introduced in 1999. It is based on the 404 Jeffery case necked down, and is a full-length magnum (2.85-inch case), meaning that it requires a 375 H&H-length action to house it. The fat, unbelted case has a rebated rim of .534-inch, base diameter of .550-inch, and headspaces on the shoulder, considered more precise and thus more conducive to accuracy than belt headspacing (as belted magnums do). The 300 RUM has greater case capacity than the 300 Weatherby Magnum, thus is potentially faster. Remington's factory loads feature 150-grain bullets at 3450 feet per second, 180-grain bullets at 3250, and a 200-grain Swift A-Frame at 3025. Remington remains the primary source for factory ammunition and production rifles, but due to its accuracy and velocity the 300 RUM is becoming popular among long-range shooters and serious mountain hunters, and is chambered to an increasing number of custom and semi-custom rifles. — Craig Boddington
