6.8 Western - 162 Grain Extreme Point - Winchester Copper Impact - 20 Rounds
Why hunt with copper bullets? They’re far from useful only for avoiding fines in certain eco-conscious jurisdictions. Copper’s nontoxicity keeps your game’s meat better for eating at the dinner table. It also keeps your barrel’s rifling cleaner while you’re out in the wild, and the metal’s extreme toughness ensures it will retain all the weight it needs to carve a deep, deadly wound channel into your quarry. This 6.8 Western cartridge hasn’t got just any copper bullet, either. Its 162 grain Extreme Point features a much larger than average polymer tip. This tip’s very broad base initiates exceptionally fast and wide expansion as it rams into the bullet’s underlying hollow point nose cavity, thus delivering exactly the kind of terminal performance that drops elk, moose, and other deer species fast and humanely. The copper Extreme Point also enhances the accuracy that the 6.8 Western is so widely respected for. The bullet’s polymer tip serves to enhance its ballistic coefficient, as does its gracefully angled boat tail base. Winchester’s own masterful loading techniques make this ammo’s performance even more consistent, as do their sensitive primers and precision formed brass cases.
45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds
Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
