Title: Norma 165gr JHP @1400 FPS
Post by: Intercooler on March 16 2014 07:14:45 AM MDT
   I know it exists and that's about all. It looks like a swap with 1canvas will bring a few my way to test.

That's neat the 165's were not done yet 8), they came after the 170's and may be different powder or not!  :-\

Looks like they are original with the marking on the primer.  8)

Definitely cool, now I have to find some of these to add to the 170s and 200s I have, didn't even know they made me! Wonder if they'll hit the 1400fps mark, looking forward to the tests!

  Well, these fizzled in meeting claims.

EAA Limited Pro 4.75" 1309, 1308, 1293. Average = 1303.33 FPS/ 622 LBS
EAA Hunter 6" 1372, 1342, 1303. Average = 1339 FPS/ 657 LBS

According to the sheet numbers for the 170gr's they did perform a little better.

I updated some of the pull down sheets to add the range data you posted...

Do you think the 30 year old gun powder came into play with these not meeting the claims? Still not that bad anyway.

   Hmmm. I guess it could and The Shadow's pull-down will give us the bullet weight, powder type and amount. One of those may smoke it out why they didn't.
