Winchester SXZ Ammo

[hometheaterman]

Anyone used the Winchester SXZ ammo that is exclusive to Bass Pro? It's pretty cheap for hollowpoints and the target ones are not too terribly priced. The hollow points and the training ones are supposed to shoot the same so that you can save a few bucks when practicing but have them shoot the same as the hollow points.

Anyone think this is a good round to carry for self defense or is it something you should only use for target shooting? Anyone used it and know how it is? Any opinions? Worth the money?

I sent Winchester an email about these asking if they were like the old Black Talons or if they were like the USA stuff that comes in the white boxes as I'd heard both. Or if it was totally different from both. They quickly sent an email back saying that it was the same as the USA line except for the black coating.

Now the training ones are shaped different than the white box fmj's but I'm thinking they are saying the hollow points are the same. I've never used the USA line of hollow points so are they any good?
