I think they produce a ton but like most companies are focusing on the big volum3 sellers and the newest wizbangs.

I’m a Hornady American Whitetail or Nosler Accubond guy BUT outside of .308 they are getting difficult to find. I took a flyer on some Norma .308 (medium game with the elk on the box) and I’m very impressed. They are supposedly the Oryx bullet and I got them for 17$ a box…..so I bought 7 boxes lol. I highly recommend.

That's a steal. The oryx is a premium hunting bullet that performs extremely well in my experience.

Once I use up my current stock of nosler stuff I'm done with them. It's great stuff (probably the best) but their prices and availability have both gotten completely ridiculous.

I was gonna suggest federal fusion but I don't see any federal anywhere. I have a bunch of 7-08 on the shelf but I'm scared to shoot it.

Norma - Do they make a ballistic tip for 7mm-08?

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

Midway has Norma and Barnes in stock. I’m sure it won’t last long.

Not 140 Accubonds….but if you’re looking to switch…here it is.

Shipping is brutal, though.

OP, trade that 7-08 for a 308 and your life will be simpler.

I normally shoot 139gr Hornady's but has been hard to find and expensive. I have shot Winchester Super X and found a box under $50 with shipping on Ammoseek.Took about 3 days to come in.
