The 300 NORMA
Magnum (short for "Norma Magnum") is a powerful and versatile
cartridge designed for long-range shooting and hunting. It was developed by the
Swedish ammunition manufacturer Norma in collaboration with the American
gunmaker U.S. Optics, and is based on the .338 Lapua Magnum case, necked down
to .308 inches.
The 300 NORMA
Mag offers excellent accuracy and ballistics, with a flat trajectory and high
velocity. It can propel heavy bullets with high sectional density and ballistic
coefficients, making it an ideal choice for long-range hunting of large game
such as elk, moose, and bears. Additionally, the cartridge has been adopted by
several military and law enforcement agencies for long-range sniping and
anti-personnel applications. Overall, the 300 NORMA Mag is a powerful and
effective cartridge that has gained a strong following among hunters, precision
shooters, and tactical operators.
