Winchester xp3 Bullets
 
What are ya'll opinions on this bullet in 160 gr. for the 7mm rem. mag.? It's only made in 160 gr. I'm trying to find the best all around bullet for short and long range. (25-300 yrds.) Do you think this is too much bullet for whitetail sized game?

I don't know that it is to much,but I honestly don't know that you will ever see the difference in it and a less expensive bullet on deer.

tried the 150 gr. Winchester xp3 Bullets in my 300wsm .got more velocity but accuracy went away ..went back to my WINCHESTER SUPREME ACCUBOND 180 GR. ps . have shot bear,moose,caribou and deer with that bullet [accubond] and have no complaints they all dropped ..

Agree had the same issue in 2 different 300 mags....both myself and my dads guns. Went to a Federal Barnes expandable no issues since!

No, i'm not reloading. I'm buying over the counter. What other over the counter bullets are out there that are similar to this? The remington a-frame looked good but they don't make it in 7mm rem. mag.

Tough to beat an X,especially a 120 or 140.

Please excuse my ignorance. What is an x?
