Winchester Launches Three New Ammo Lines

By Tom Knighton

If there’s anything gun people love as much as firearms, it’s probably ammunition. After all, without ammo, guns don’t exactly work too well and become glorified clubs. That makes ammo almost as awesome as firearms.

And it seems that Winchester announced three new ammo lines at SHOT last week.

During SHOT Show, Chris covered the ins-and-outs of Winchester’s new WWII Victory Series Ammo. It appears to be historically-accurate enough to appease gun hipsters and shooters nostalgic for the smell of cordite. I, for one, long for the days when nostalgia wasn’t such a big deal. It was just better then; nostalgia ain’t what it used to be. Anyway . . .

At Industry Day on the Range I shot Winchester’s other two brand new brands of ammo: Super Suppressed and Hybrid-X.

…

Super Suppressed is exactly what you’d hope: fully-copper-encapsulated, heavy-for-caliber projectiles loaded subsonic on clean-burning powder and primers. It’s optimized for running through a suppressor with the utmost minimum of noise and dirtiness.

It’ll be available in .22 LR, .22 Magnum, 9mm, .45 ACP, 300 Blackout and .308 <a target="_blank" title="Link added by VigLink" href="http://www.brownells.com/search/index.htm?k=winchester&ksubmit=y" …Read the Rest
