We interviewed with Norma at the Shot Show.
The good news is we now represent Norma for the 13 Northeastern states. Happy Happy Happy! |

Norma makes good components and good ammunition. BUT I think they are overprized in Sweden. Good luck Peddler |

Good luck Peddler. Not sure if you're with WP, or a competitor, but they've been keeping shelves stocked about as well as other powder companies, over the past few years, which is to say, our patience has been tested. This is not a knock against 'em, just a political comment. We've all been seeing that light at the end of the tunnel growing brighter.
I discovered Norma in the 70s, when the only rifles I could afford came in old, obscure military flavors and Norma was the only source of brass and ammo. Norma powders also performed better in a couple of my loads, than anything else back then. The limited availability and pricing disparity with similar/same products has kept me from using more, over the years. Same on brass and bullets. Maybe Norma just can't swing the level of financing as Alliant. I suspect that it's rather more due to marketing philosophy. Not sure if Norma has brought back the metal cans, or the ones I've been seeing are just from some old cache, recently brought to market. Either way, I like it. I get the warm fuzzies every time I see those red cans. |

Ps The first deer I ever took was with an old 1891 Argentine Mauser, loaded with Norma brass and N-201, a Speer 150 gr. Hot cor and loaded to just shy of 2900 fps, which Norma listed max for that combo at 2920, if memory serves.

My dad had bought his first rifle in 300H&H cal.(That rifle is mine today) It came with 5 boxes of Norma 200gr Roundnose. My father swore they could reach the moon... we were still small and believed him!!!
I could be wrong but I recall Norma and our local bullet maker PMP teaming up???

Actually PMP are using Swift Aframe and Swift Sirroco bullets, never seen any Norma bullets in their ammo |
