Ok,

So I'm in the process of acquiring a new to me 8mm Mauser sporter with a full stock. I would like to find either some Norma Oryx 8mm Ammo, and secondly, some bullets. However, I'm only finding the Norma Whitetail Ammo in 8mm Mauser here in the USA. Is also be ok with bond strike too.

If it works as intended, I hope to take it to Limpopo in a couple of years.

Anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

Appreciate the help!

I have a BRNO VZ 24 in 8 X 57 and looked for Norma Oryx Ammo and or bullets. No luck. However, if you are willing to look at something else try Sellier & Bellot Ammo. They've been around for a long time as well. Rivertown Munitions currently has some stock of S&B 's196 Gr. bonded bullet (loaded ammo) for $22.?? a box. Give it a try. Raven Rocks Precision has Norma Brass just in case you are a reloader.
 
Appreciate the help, Shootist43!

I'll look at the S&B. I've just been impressed with Norma in a couple of other rifles.

Good Afternoon,
How firm are you on your Dakota 416? I am highly interested but looking at a few different guns currently.

Best,
BJ

What is the minimum you would take.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
