Norma Big Game ammo question

I purchased this ammo for the components, I did not expect these 180gn bullets to shoot well in any of my .308 win rifles as they just don’t have the twist to stabilize this weight of bullets.

My 300 win mag loves 180 gn bullets, I’m hoping these Swift A Frames shoot as well as the Norma Oryx 180gn bullets that I’ve been loading recently.

The new .308 brass and powder will be used with a 150gn bullet that I know will shoot well in my 1-11” twist .308 rifles.
I loaded these 180 gn Swift A frame bullets in my .300 Win Mag, they shot great, good grouping, I have 180gn Norma Oryx and 165 gn Barnes TTSX bullets all shooting to the same point of impact.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
