    Allure of the Ruger No1

    I bought a few boxes of the discontinued Norma American Ph Oryx ammo years ago in anticipation of going to Africa someday. I will be reloading after they are gone. Almost pulled the trigger on a double a few times. Best of luck with yours.

    Welcome! I've built fiber from Star Valley to New Castle, Kemmerer to Cody and all points in between. Some of my biggest elk deer and pronghorn are from there. Good luck in the draws this year.
