The Norma Oryx .243 Winchester 100-grain load (brand part no. 20160332) gives deer and antelope hunters a bonded rifle bullet built to stay together through bone and muscle alike. Norma engineers the Oryx bullet with a chemically bonded core and jacket, a construction method that keeps the bullet from shedding weight on impact the way conventional cup-and-core bullets sometimes do. That bonded design translates into deep, reliable penetration on quartering shots and heavier-boned game, without sacrificing the accuracy hunters expect from a boat-tail rifle bullet. Loaded in brass cases and boxed for the field, this .243 Winchester rifle ammunition is built for hunters who want one dependable load from opening morning through the last day of season.
