If you tend to geek out on how things are made, you may enjoy this latest vid from Norma.

Good video!

All I hunt with is Norma out of my .308... Made the switch 2 or 3 years ago and have not had a bobble since.

I didn't realize the cartridge holders could be used as a fire starter.

I wish Olaf and Sven would get off their asses and send some some powder over here. I'd kiss some fat Swede ass for a jug of 203B.


Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.

No schidt. I use RL15 for 203B loads in my 9.3x57, have been for almost 15 years. Since no one trusts the new guy, see below.

I suspect one of the problems with powder available is the many varieties now available. It's increasingly difficult to produce enough of each to satisfy every handloader--one among several reasons it used to be a lot easier to buy powder.

I haven't seen RL15 for about 6 months now.

Thanks Jake....new guy makes huge points right there. Them Swede's kinda piss me off anyhow...duplicitous scheming bastards sat out 2 world wars after invading Norway at least 4 times and eventually stealing it from Denmark. Hope you aren't a Swede. Don't get me started on the theft of the 65x55 from Norway, 3 years before the "joint commission''.lol
