Who made a .264 150 gr RN ?
I had a bunch of these RNSP stashed away in a bag. I don't know where they came from or who made them. I'm guessing they are 40 -50 yrs old
.
Any ideas who might have made them ?

Maybe Hornady, I’m pretty sure they still sell a 160 grain RN. I’m curious now also. Take care.

A picture would be nice, but that age of bullet I would bet European manufacturer.

I think I have to assume they were European sourced. No reference anywhere as to an American mfg of a .264 150 gr RN .
AFIK Hornady apparently discontinued the 160 gr RN. Currently, I think Woodleigh are the only ones supplying the NA market with that bullet.
Thanks All

Remington made 150’s for the Carcano years ago.
Check the diameter make sure they aren’t 0.268”

My guess would be Norma too.
We used to buy bulk bagged Norma bullets in the 70s.
I still have some round nose bullets for .303 British.
