6.5 Creedmoor Big Cat Load - 04/01/18 03:25 AM
Loaded a few rounds with the 156 gr Norma Oryx with Reloder 16 for a friend’s 6.5 Creedmoor.
It’s actually his wife’s and she has accounted for several deer,elk and aoudad this past season so she plans on taking it to Africa. Leopard is on the menu so I wanted to go heavy and tough even though had no issues with the 143 ELD-X.
The load shot great running 2700fps and printed a nice 3 shot group just under half inch after getting dialed in.
Got some pictures but still cannot post pics on this forum from IPad for some reason.
Anyone used the Norma Oryx ? I have some factory Oryx for my 7.5x55 Swiss but have not killed anything tough with them.
