While researching the link for the recall of Winchester 22lr I stumbled across their pitch for their new line of ammo. Anybody familiar with it? Worth the extra $$?

Not worth it to me....I practice with as close to what I use for SD as possible.

Did ya find the Winchester link? I didn't know about a recall...

Yes, I have some. It's Really Good Ammo! I have the JHP and FMJ and I can tell you, the JHP is a hotter load than the FMJ. Winchester says they're the same ballistics. But shooting both says The hollow points are hotter! No biggie, just worth mention . Very Consistent accuracy on both the Target loads and Defense Loads.
You can order some from Cabelas and even get it shipped Free if you hurry!
I already did. Here's the link: $129.95 for 100 FMJ and 100 JHP in a Nifty Wood Box! Shipped price! See the Promo Code below

Really not much more than the rest of Winchester's 45 ACP ammo!
I paid $20.00 for 50 FMJ and $35 for 50 JHP at the Local Gun Show a couple months ago. The JHP's look like Silvertips to me!

I just used the link provided and ordered some,Thanks for putting that up.That's a pretty good price considering the free shipping.Can never have too much ammo put back.That wood box could be used later to give ammo as a gift.

I just checked, my Box-o-Ammo is on it's way!;) I don't know if anyone noticed, but The Box will hold a Full Size 1911 when empty! :D
Man, Cabelas is Fast at shipping! :)

what is this "factory ammo" you speak of? :p

ok, I carry Wilson's custom stuff with the Barnes bullet, but load my own plinking stuff until I find some VV N320

That Factory Ammo is the kind that a machine loaded. :D
Really pig, that WIN1911 is good stuff!
I have some and have shot plenty of it. Great Ammo for the $
