Winchester Bulk .308 150 grain ammo in Handi
« on: April 20, 2010, 11:52:29 AM »
Any of you guys have any experience using this brand in your Handi for plinking or hunting. I was thinking of getting some of these  to sight in some Handi`s and end up with brass to reload.  ;)

Yup...very accurate load..drops whitetails without any problems out too 300 yards..It's one of 3 loads that shoot exceptionally well out of a bull barreled restocked Survivor..My neighbor has taken about 50 deer with it and his brother bought it and has taken about 20 head so far..

If you are asking me..no..I was referencing the Winchester Super X Power ammo bought in bulk quantity..that is what I took the OP to mean about bulk..like here  http://www.cabelas.com/p-0065919216960a.shtml..The White box reference is usually FMJ or ball type ammo not hunting ammo for this caliber.

spikehorn,
Mac11700 is correct, the Super X Power Point that you can buy in bulk can also be purchased by the box of 20. This box is gray in color.
Anyway will buy a couple of boxes and if the Handi`s like`em I will go ahead and buy up a 100 rounds in the bulk configuration.

guys thanks for the info not to bad of prices at cabellas. I have not tried winchester ammo in my 308 ultra varmint. I happened into our local k mart 6-7 years ago was just gunna grab 1 box of 308 shells, rem core lokt 150gr rang up $6 asked  the guy and he said they were selling off the remington stock because they were going to start carrying winchester. I ended up buying all the 308 they had. I still have about 12 boxes.

When buying factory , Winchester always gets my love first .. Most of the game I have taken in my life have been with the old super X .. Of  course that hasnt stopped me from learning that Federal and Hornady have great offerings too ;) .. Not a real big fan of Remington's spitzer shaped bullets though. But others still swear by Remington.
