[QUOTE="BigSkyGP, post: 447173, member: 28118"] .308 Norma Mag, is the original belted magnum. It was designed for converting military 30-06 actions to belted mag 30 cal. My Dad and Grandpa had a pair, my Grandmother had made up for them on Mouser '98s. They used 71gr of IMR 4831, behind 165 spbt sierras. Many elk died over the years. The brass lasted over 20yrs of reloading. There were lots of it lost out hunting, and finally started splitting. Had to make some up out of 300 win mag brass, not a big deal. The Norma brass is rediculous in price, and a 20rnd box goes for $60 or so off the shelf. [/QUOTE]
