    I used this exact load in my Remington 783 to take a 10 point at 180 yards across the field I was hunting last year. He was running flat out chasing a doe I was swinging my rifle with him hoping he would stop but he was almost to the spot where the doe went in the wood lot so I put the crosshairs out by his nose and let fly.hit him back by his last rib and angled up through his lungs. He jumped in the woods and I found him about 25 yards in. Best shot of my life. You can get this ammo for what lapua brass cost and after using it you will have Norma brass that is fire formed to your rifle. If Norma brass is not as good as lapua I would hate to have to live on the difference. Love your videos.. live free and stay safe

    Love this ammo! Two deer fell to it last fall. Accurate, easy to find, and fairly inexpensive.

    Norma doesn't make trash. Their brass is some of the best out there, and apparently their bullets are pretty good too.

    When covid hit this is all I could find for my 300 win mag. It was also 150 grain. Affordable, decent groups, and the doe i shot with it dropped like a rock I'm happy with the norma ammo

    This Norma whitetail ammo is awesome. Many videos comparing ammo shows it to be always on top or at the top. I can punch a quarter all day long at 100yrds. Whice is what I set my gun up for, as I live in deep forest.

    For anyone concerned about the wound channel. I use the Norma Whitetail 308 round in my CVA cascade. I’ve taken six deer with this round, and everyone of them dropped in their tracks. The wound channel in all of them was downright nasty! In a good way lol. I love this round so much. I sent Norma a thank you email and asked them never to change it. I’m curious what the Whitetail 30-30 round would do.

    This has been my go to 308 win ammo for whitetail and hogs for a few years now. I found it during the ammo shortage and have stuck with it.

    So 3 years ago on of my buddies I was hunting with used that ammo in his ruger american 308 and at 50 yards he got a heart shot it deer tipped over instantly and the bullet beasicly vaporized in the chest cavity so we we had to pick bits of lead out but I found the copper jacket in tact but vary crushed up. But it worked good

    Love and enjoy your testing and this video got me wondering, for a cup&core type bullet 150gr 308 what is your top 2 picks for deer less than 150yds ? I know thats budget ammo but they preform well.

    Will you please do a video on different ammo for 7mm-08 ?
    Seems like a great whitetail / sheep and black bear round

    Great bolt action round, however found out real quick that the speed and force of feeding in ar10 resulted in deformed tip, feed and accuracy issues

    I'm using this ammunition in several calipers. While i haven't taken game yet, i have no doubts that Norma is quality. Have you done a test using tjis ammunition with the 243? God Bless America 🇺🇸

  • @helterskelter156
    @helterskelter156 4 месяца назад

    Norma makes great ammo. I don’t know why it doesn’t get more time under the spotlight. The Swedish Whitetail is affordable, accurate and effective.
    I do prefer their Soft Point German cartridge, though. It runs a bit hotter and gives me slightly better groups out of my .308 hunting gear.

    How did you color your stock? Is it painted or hydro-dipped? Looks great BTW.

  • @bekkerbosbeer3453
    @bekkerbosbeer3453 6 месяцев назад +1

    Hi mason, doesn't it make more Sense to have your Chrono at impact so see velocity as the information at the muzzle doesn't translate to what it would do on a deer...

  • @wojciechstrzalkowski3293
    @wojciechstrzalkowski3293 5 месяцев назад +2

    First - sorry for my english but could You test and compare european ammo too? Sako, Lapua, Brenneke etc.
    Nobody here perform as interesting tests as You.
    Thanks a lot for your excelent job!

  • @joshua_J

    I really wish you would show the block after every shot and not after it is blasted 3-5 times. It makes it difficult to see the temporary and permanent wound channels.

    Pretty accurate is what I thought I only shot three rounds grouped pretty good all the bullets holes touched at 100 yards. it’s still cheap ammo, but I’d say excellent buy it.
