Picked up a box of 150 gr Swift Scirocco II's for my .280 Rem. Can't find much load data online other than Swift's site advising to use established load data for similar weight bullets. That's where I'll go from here I guess but thought I'd see if anyone here loads for this and what your rifle likes.
 
They have very long bearing surfaces, start low. I blew primers with in a 300 winny with 180 gr scirroco's using less than my standard load for the 168 gr TSX I normally used. When I ran one through another guys Chrony at the range they were over 3200 fps with a nowhere near max load.

Be careful.
