Norma Oryx 30-06 Springfield 180gr Hunting Ammunition - 20 Rounds

The Norma Oryx 30-06 Springfield 180-grain ammunition delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for reliable performance on medium to large game. This premium hunting cartridge features Norma's bonded bullet construction that maintains weight retention while creating devastating wound channels.

What Makes This Different

The Oryx bullet utilizes a bonded core design that prevents jacket separation during impact, ensuring consistent performance across varying shot distances. Unlike standard cup-and-core bullets that may fragment on heavy bone contact, the Oryx maintains structural integrity while expanding to nearly twice its original diameter. This controlled expansion creates maximum energy transfer while preserving sufficient penetration for ethical kills on elk, moose, and other large game species.
