Win White Box

[BerettaRacer]

Don't know if to many people have noticed yet, but the newer packages of Win White Box are now marked as "improved accuracy bullet" and are a different color. Since many of us use this as general range/competition ammo I sent Winchester an email asking about the differences. This is their reply:

Thank you very much for taking the time to contact us here at Winchester

Ammunition. We are always glad to hear from our many friends and customers

who share in the shooting sport.

The only change in the 9mm 115 grain value pack was a change in the alloy.

The weight of the bullet did not change, however bullet weights can vary

from lot to lot. Winchester ammunition manufactures all of the ammunition

within Industry Specifications.

Thank you again for contacting us here at Winchester Ammunition. If you

should require additional information, do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,

Winchester Technical Department

Hey, how's that for a great non-answer.

It only raised more questions...

Great. Make sure the next lot uses bullets weighing 147 to 180 grns (good idea Kingman!) & use a really small charge of really fast burning, soft shooting powder. And lower the price. Then I will give up reloading 9mm.

I got a similar reply from Federal regarding their cleanprimed ammo. Short & patronizing. Oh well.
