Norma Bondstrike 6.5 PRC ammunition (brand part no. 20166452) is part of Norma’s Dedicated Hunting lineup, loading a 143-grain bonded boat-tail bullet with a polymer ballistic tip for hunters who push their shots to the far edge of their rifle’s capability. Norma bonds the copper jacket directly to the lead core, so the bullet retains the bulk of its weight and drives on through vitals even after impact velocity has dropped off at distance. The ballistic tip initiates expansion reliably across a wide range of velocities, while the boat tail keeps the bullet’s ballistic coefficient high for less wind drift and drop. Built for hunters chasing elk or deer at genuinely long range, this rifle ammunition pairs premium bonded construction with the flat-shooting cartridge that made it possible.
