Norma round


Do they make a ballistic tip for 7mm-08? Since I switched the Nosler ballistic tips and my deer are dropping at a lot higher rate.

Not sure. My daughters were shooting federal fusion in their 7mm-08 but they have been rare for about 2 years. Switched them to Norma this year and they are 5/5. As far as deer dropping in their tracks, that’s an often overrated detail. If you shoot a deer through the lungs it rarely runs more than 100yds. Most of the time half that. If you can’t find a deer bleeding from 2 holes that doesn’t run more than 100yds you may need to take up soccer as a hobby.

No. Just regular soft points I believe. They are fine for deer.

They make something called Tipstrike. It's either constructed like the Accubonds or BTs I guess.
