Winchester USA - Full Metal Jacket - 165 Grain 40 S&W Ammo - 500 Rounds

As a variant of the very popular yet potentially abusive 10mm Auto, the .40 S&W was adopted in 1990 by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as their new sidearm round to answer their need for a more potent caliber than what was then in service. Known sometimes as the 10mm Short, the .40 struck a balance between improved performance without the considerable recoil of its parent cartridge. The 165 grain fmj round by Winchester has a muzzle velocity of 1060 feet per second with 412 foot pounds of energy behind it. It has noticeably better performance, and accompanying increased recoil, than the heavier, slower 180 grain bullet, and therefore is a good training round for shooters who carry their .40s with self-defense ammunition.

This Winchester 40 S&W ammo comes packaged with 10 boxes that each contain 50 rounds. It's a convenient way to break up the case so you can grab and go as many 50-round boxes as you need for that day's range trip. Or, if you're like us, you'll probably just grab the whole thing!

In America the name Winchester has just about become synonymous with firearms. The association is rooted in a long tradition of reliability that the Olin Corporation maintains in Winchester brand ammunition that comes from their plant in Clayton, Missouri. Winchester brass cases are prized by reloaders for the same reason shooters favor the Winchester brand name: quality. This half case lot is ideal for keeping ready for that planned or impromptu trip to the range to keep your skills honed. Order today!
