    Very accurate round
    Hits like a hammer
    Had the 208amax going 3000fps
    Dies can be a bitch to find.

    300 Norma or 300 Blaser?
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    300 Blaser is old news

    Definitely 300 Norma mag, might even be some coming into the country

    Obviously R8 only, give 45 South a call

    Old news for sure but Norma 300 Blaser is two different offerings in one. @Doubleshot is it 300 Norma Mag or 300 Blaser Mag you are interested in? Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

    Sorry, to clear it up it is a Norma .300 Blaser Magnum, Norma developed it for Blaser on request, my gunsmith has a reamer, Brass is available, Dies are on the way to NZ soon (1 set saved for me) from what I can find so far it is a ripper, low on recoil, fast accurate and as mentioned hits like a hammer. This I'm very much looking forward to...

    Its either.....

    300 blaser magnum (.545 rum/rem mag base dia)

    Or


    300 norma magnum (338 lapua base dia)

    I suspect both were developed by Norma with their own brass.

    Low on recoil, fast and hit like a hammer usually don't go hand in hand
    Wildman and shooternz like this.
