Default winchester super X ammo

is there anything "wrong" with it, besides the stigma attached to it being sold at those bigbox stores? you know the ones i'm talking about... are their rounds any more un-reliable then their counterparts in federal or remington, etc?

I usually get the Remington Core Lokt, but I have also many boxes of SuperX in reserve that I got at a good price. I do not see they are any better or any worse than others.

I use the Winchester Super X Power Points in my 270wsm. Very accurate and consitant in velocity in my rifle. In a Couple weeks I will try them out on a cow elk and a doe deer in Dec. I think if you put into a the boiler room area should not have a problem.

I have used them in the past and never had any problems at all. All 3 of my deer last season dropped within 10 yards after being hit.

i like them better than corelokts.

i think i killed 3 deer with them from my 3006. i liked their performance.

wished i woulda looked a little harder on a buck i killed. he was pretty much facing me/walking left barely. i put it right through the body longwise chest on. he flipped over backwards and never moved. i didnt look to see what all i hit or anything...dont know if the bullet exited or not...it was dark and i never looked...

but i like them...

There is nothing wrong with them at all. For deer you don't need to buy the premium bullets to kill them. I shoot whichever brand shoots best in my rifles. On some of them it is Winchester, on others it is Remington, Federal, or Hornady.
