308 Win 180 grain Norma Bondstrike

[SJB358]

I'll get some weights and measurements soon. But it looks like a tipped Oryx to me which ain't a bad thing..

 

[DrMike]

That'll work. Fine bullet.

 

[JD338]

That's impressive looking. Should dump a lot of energy.

Looks like a good load and bullet. I'll have to try and source some. Thanks for sharing.

It was 144 retained and .835 at the widest. Pretty formidable bullet. Also found it in the 5th 1 gallon jug.

Man, that’s an awesome mushroom. Reminds me of what the old sciroccos used to do before they screwed them up and made them thicker. Too bad Norma doesn’t have anything in stock on their website to replace my undersize 350 eights. I’d be all over them. They only list two bond strikes for loose projectiles and they’re out of stock on both of them.

 

[SJB358]

Hopefully it’s something they continue to add to their line.

Looks really good Scotty, I'm a big fan of Norma bullets and brass. These look really good at 308 speeds. Guys use them in the 30 cal magnums too.

Looks like performer for sure.

I’d bet it’d be a ripper in a 300 magnum. Hope they keep making more. Their bonding on the Oryx and this looks great.

 

[JD338]

That would be a great bullet in the 30 Nosler.
Talk about hitting like a freight train.

Yeah, I just checked their website again and they don’t have any but they’re basically an even trade if they were in stock for the credit they’re gonna give me. Darn it!

I am using the 143 bond strike in my 264wm if I ever recover a bullet I will be sure to share

 

[TXbaldhunter]

Looks like the Hornady Interbond mushroom.

I’d sure grab some if I see them. Bet their wicked in your 264..

Looks like the Hornady Interbond mushroom.

Agreed. Wide with good bonding.

Dang, .835 is wicked. Should dump a lot of energy. I would love to try that bullet.
