When should I choose the 13,0 g Oryx? Choose the 13,0 g Oryx if you want a heavier bonded-core hunting bullet for your .30-06 Springfield rifle. If you prefer a lighter bullet with the same construction, consider the 11,7 g Oryx. For a lead-free option, choose Odin or Ecostrike in the same calibre. Our recommendation If you choose the heavier Oryx, test how the 13,0 g load performs in your rifle before hunting. Bring your current hunting cartridge for comparison and check the centre of the shot group with both at the same distance. If you hunt mainly in cold weather, also practise at the range wearing your usual hunting clothing and equipment. This lets you assess how the rifle fits against your shoulder and how the particular load feels to you. If your current .30-06 cartridge has a lighter bullet, give yourself time to get used to the new load. Observe how consistently the shots group and record the results of your test series. Include the cartridge name, bullet weight and distance. If you change batches during the season or want to try the lighter Oryx again, you will have results from your own rifle for comparison. Choose the heavier Oryx for your .30-06 hunting rifle Norma Oryx 13,0 g is suitable for hunters who prefer a heavy soft-point bullet with controlled expansion. The factory box contains 20 cartridges.
