    There wasnt that much of a difference in penetration between the two .223 bullets. Norma ammunition is almost non existent in my local rfds, plenty of hornady on the shelves though.;)

    This is a good episode which shows a detailed comparison of Norma hunting ammo.

    Connection too slow to see the video, maybe later.

    Buy Norma when ever i can find them, pricey but very good. Their ORYX is great in .270. A lot of the bullets they load are premium from manufacturers like Nosler,Woodledge,Swift & Barnes, just renamed. Some of the high end stuff from other brands is actually made by Norma. Pretty sure I seen somewhere the Federal Premium range is loaded by Norma.
