    Jwshooter held that Norma load in very high esteem for hind culling. Also long distance crows and the like.

    Hornady makes the bullet but Norma loads it. Norma doesn't make Hornady ammunition though. It's just one component they use, same as they also load bullets like the Barnes TSX or the Nosler Partition alongside their own proprietary bullets like the Oryx and Vulkan.
