Title: TipStrike bullets/ammo
Post by: TexWeatherby on March 13, 2019, 08:14:22 AM
Norma came out with a new bullet design not that long ago called TipStrike and I was wondering if anybody has used it and has opinions. It looks like it may be a decent performer. Maybe Weatherby may eventually offer it? (I think Norma still makes Weatherby ammo)

I have not heard of the TipStrike but will check them out. Thanks for the information.

This bullet probably has a good future, but it does remind me of a clone of the ammo Hornady first introduced years ago.

Yeah, first thing I thought was Hornady Critical Defense. It looks promising though.
