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.

Hi PaulB. Would you be interested in another WJ Jeffery .450/.400 NE 3". It's an extractor model and in superb condition, cased as well. Made in 1908. The rifle is here in Texas.
