The 6.5-284 is an American invention, Lapua and Norma just happen to domesticate it.

My two favorite Northmen are the 358 Norma and the 7x33.

One for moose, and one for the horse of the forest.

You can also add the 308 NOrma.

Hmmm good points...

Ok the changing of a case makes it a half breed. the Winmags would be half American and half English like Winston Churchil

PS can you send SOME of your pretty blondes? I am thinking of the future....True blondes are being bred out...We need some fresh stock
