Truegent2004 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Winchester has discontined my favorite 3 gun slug..the Winlite. Why I don't know since it seemed to be a good seller. Since it seems that all of their retailers are sold out, I'll need a good replacement. I see Winchester makes a Law Enforcement reduced recoil slug called "Ranger". Has anybody had experience with these loads? Comparable to Winlite? Anybody know of anybody that still has Winlite in stock so I can hoard it?

THM7 Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I use the Winchester Ranger slugs....they work great out of both my Saiga 12's and M2. Very soft shooting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whistlepig Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I don't know winlite but I have shot a ton of Ranger (also sometimes labled as "tactical reduced recoil" It shoots ok, but in a reduced recoil round I have found that the Federal "Tru-Ball" flies the best in my guns. One tip would be to call Police Supply stores in your area and find out who pushes Winchester in your area. Then ask them for the cell number for their Winchester rep/salesman. The Company rep (a good one would) will know what is closest to Winlite in ballistics. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is still listed on the web site and my distributor has it in stock. Where did you hear this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
