The Super X Pump Universal Hunter is wrapped in the DNA woods camo patter from Mossy Oak. The rugged composite stock and forearm are designed to feel slim in the hands, with textured gripping surfaces to improve grip in wet, cold conditions. The inertia-assisted Speed Pump action utilizes a pair of rigid action bars and offers reliability and record-setting cycling speed. A redesigned trigger group now features a reversible “safety” button to accommodate left-handed shooters, and a ramped trigger guard for easier loading.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
