    Norma Vulkan projectiles.

    Hi All. Any one using Norma Vulcan's, particularly in 7mm?

    I've used them in 30 cal, 8mm and 6.5mm

    The are accurate, hold together well and open up fairly quickly, but are not at all aerodynamic.

    Nowadays I'm using Norma Oryx as a bush load in 7mm and 6.5mm, and find similar results.

    I used them a few years back - they certainly drop animals! Back then 300 was a long shot, and they worked great for anything inside that. As Ross has said, they're not that aerodynamic so would assume they drop off relatively quickly.
