The NORMA Ecostrike is a type of lead-free rifle ammunition manufactured by the Swedish company NORMA Precision AB. It was designed and developed as a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional lead-based ammunition. It offers a reliable and effective option for hunters who value sustainability and environmental protection.

The Ecostrike line is characterized by a number of unique features:

Lead-free bullet

A central aspect of Ecostrike ammunition is the use of lead-free bullets. Traditional bullets often consist of lead, a material known to be harmful to the environment and living beings when it enters nature. By using lead-free materials, these environmental burdens are minimized.

Nickel coating

The bullets of Ecostrike ammunition are coated with nickel. This coating reduces friction when the bullet is pulled through the barrel, resulting in a higher muzzle velocity. The nickel coating also helps to reduce the likelihood of barrel fouling and increases the overall resistance of the bullet to corrosion.

Energy transfer

The Ecostrike bullets are designed to ensure rapid energy transfer upon penetration into the target. They expand quickly upon impact, achieving maximum wound cavity and efficient energy transfer to ensure a quick and humane kill of the game.

Bullet design

The Ecostrike bullets feature a special boat-tail design. This improves the ballistics of the bullet and provides a more precise trajectory. This can be particularly advantageous for long-distance shots, as it increases accuracy and reduces the effects of wind and other atmospheric disturbances.

Caliber

The NORMA Ecostrike ammunition is available in a variety of calibers to meet the diverse needs and preferences of hunters worldwide. 
Below are some of the key calibers in which NORMA Ecostrike is manufactured. 

• .243 Winchester: This ammunition is particularly suitable for hunting smaller to medium-sized animals. It is known for its high speed and precision at medium ranges.
• .270 Winchester: A versatile caliber often used by hunters for a variety of game species, from deer to moose.
• 7mm Remington Magnum: This ammunition has a high muzzle velocity and energy and is often used for hunting larger game.
• .30-06 Springfield: One of the most popular calibers for hunting, it is known for its versatility and effectiveness across many different types of game.
• .308 Winchester: Another versatile caliber that is popular among hunters worldwide. It is known for its effectiveness in a variety of hunting situations.

It is important to note that, although the NORMA Ecostrike represents a more environmentally friendly option, it should still be handled and disposed of properly to avoid unnecessary environmental impacts.
