OVERVIEW
This ammunition is known to be extremely reliable and consistent. Loaded to NATO specifications, this is the same ammunition as currently being shipped to American soldiers overseas. Winchester USA 9mm review offers the following information; Founded in 1866 in New Haven, CT Winchester is as American as apple pie. One of the most commonly used manufacturers for a wide range of shooting needs, Winchester USA is an outstanding pick due to its reliability, consistency and durability. From the start Winchester was one of the top designers of rifle ammunition and were the first to introduce some of the top rifle calibers that are still used by marksmen today. This cartridge is topped with a 124 grain projectile, the middle of the range for its caliber. The bullet’s full metal jacket promotes positive functioning in a semi-automatic, so this round will work like a charm whether you’ve got a Glock or an AR-15. Winchester’s jacket is hard enough to stave off bore fouling, but not so hard as to shave down rifling.

Very accurate and tough bullet, good small game and pelt round.

This ammo works great in both my bolt action CZ 455 rifle and in the Kel-Tec PMR 30. I prefer hollow points for hunting but this ammo works great for target practice and I would use it for hunting in a pinch.

In terms of accuracy, this ammo turned in the poorest five shot group of six different loads that I tested out of my 9422. At fifty yards the best group it produced measured just over 4″. The best of my test was Winchesters Supreme 34gr HP’s. They averaged just under .750 at fifty yards. I can’t explain such a poor performance from the full metal jackets. I really hoped they would shoot wells as they are affordable and would keep pelt damage to a minimum
