undefinedNorma cartridge cases are known worldwide for superior quality, and now they're going to be readily available to American handloaders. The brass cases, which are being imported from Sweden by Norma-USA, were on display alongside the latest edition of the company's handloading manual at the 143rd NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits.

The brass cases will ship in packs of 25. Engineered from the best raw materials with the narrowest tolerances, each case delivers round after round of accuracy. They'll be showing up in force on gun shop shelves this year.

Also new is the latest edition of the company's reloading manual. As part of Norma’s 110 years in the ammunition industry, it's publishing a second reloading handbook for the beginner to the advanced handloader. The new volume has been updated with new cartridges, components and recipes for avid hunters to dedicated target shooters.

The manual shares the history behind the Norma brand and a plethora of solidly backed advice and loads—all of which use Norma's own products. It's a unique offering that doubles as a collectible edition and just a darn useful resource.

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? Read on about this often unfairly overlooked hunting classic.
