The Norma Oryx 7mm Remington Magnum delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for reliable big game performance. This 170-grain bonded soft point ammunition combines Swedish engineering precision with proven terminal ballistics that hunters depend on for ethical harvests on medium to large game.
What Makes This Different
The Oryx bullet features a bonded core construction that prevents jacket separation during impact, maintaining weight retention above 85% even through heavy bone and muscle. Unlike conventional cup-and-core bullets that can fragment, the bonded design ensures consistent mushrooming and straight-line penetration. The polymer tip initiates controlled expansion while the boat-tail design improves ballistic coefficient for flatter trajectory and reduced wind drift at extended ranges.
Key Features
- Bonded soft point bullet construction prevents core separation for maximum weight retention
- 170-grain bullet weight optimized for 7mm Rem Mag velocity and energy transfer
- Polymer tip design ensures reliable expansion at various impact velocities
- Boat-tail configuration reduces drag for improved long-range ballistics
- Premium brass cases with consistent wall thickness for reliable feeding and extraction
- Temperature-stable powder formulation maintains velocity consistency in field conditions
- Boxer-primed cases suitable for reloading applications
Field testing demonstrates consistent 1.5-2 MOA accuracy from quality hunting rifles with muzzle velocities around 2,950 fps from 24-inch barrels. The bonded construction performs effectively on elk, moose, and large African plains game where deep penetration through heavy muscle and bone is critical. The ammunition functions reliably in both bolt-action and semi-automatic platforms chambered for 7mm Remington Magnum.
