For hunters who appreciate modern bullet technology, the Norma .300 WSM Bondstrike offers several features. The polymer tip serves dual purposes: it enhances the ballistic coefficient for better long-range performance and initiates expansion upon impact. The bonded core helps maintain bullet weight during penetration. These features, combined with the cartridge's high velocity, create a round that can be effective from close range out to longer distances, depending on the shooter's skill and the specific hunting situation. The consistent expansion and penetration characteristics can be particularly beneficial when dealing with less-than-ideal shot angles in the field.
