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.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew
