I have contacted NORMA via this post of theirs and await feedback. Is there anybody that can assist here with info on NORMA's new range of DG ammo.. SOFT and SOLIDS? particularly looking at 458 WM in 500gr soft & solid and 375 H & H magnum in 300gr soft & solids.. for DG hunting in Africa... bullet performance is the key here, as I hunt elephant and buffalo.

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.
On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.
its going to be a good year!
