[QUOTE="Happyshooter, post: 2835883, member: 127025"] I got a call from a Norma rep a couple weeks ago and he said they want their factory ammo to have more of a presence in the US market. We spoke specifically about ammo that would be effective at longer ranges. I was told to try the Bondstrike ammo, so I called Sports South and got a few boxes to try. This was the first day testing in custom 6.5 Creedmoor. This performance was from a 20" Proof carbon fiber barrel. Average according to LabRadar was 2663. Shot one round at 200 to check zero which was exactly the same as 143 ELD-X. Then I fired four rounds at 504 yards. Seems like the BC may also be pretty close. Now I just need to test it on some game. I'm going to do some more shooting before becoming a fan, but I think they may have a really good combination here. I also see that right now availability is better than the Hornady offerings. I'll post future results. [/QUOTE]
