Thread: .308 Norma mag

Can any one out there shed any light on the "new" .308 Norma mag? Any info would be handy. An also is there any rifle manufacturers that produce a rifle in this caliber?

In the data you have read are they necking down 338 Norma mag brass?

If so I have some data here. Send me a PM.

Do you mean 300 norma mag? Or the 308 norma mag? Which is a belted case. You dont need to neck down 338 norma mag cases as norma make 300 brass.

Its in the nzhunter mag, in the norma ad page 39, definitly says .308 Norma mag!

I don't have that magazine so can't see what you mean but hasn't the 308 Norma magnum been about since the early sixties, I had an idea it predated the 300 winchester Magnum

.308 Norma Magnum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

.308 Norma mag is not a new calibre, been around since 1960! Only Norma make factory ammo for it, they pop up on TM every now and then.

my old man had a styer in 308 norma mag years ago awesome round. same belted case as 7mm rem mag and 264 win mag. the 300 win mag is a longer case

Cheers guys for the help. Was unaware it has been around that long, it just says "new" in there ad? Will do some more seaching! So i take it most rifle makers would do this calibre?

No, probably the opposite, most don't chamber it I would say...
