The Winchester Ballistic Silvertip 95-grain round is built for hunters who want reliable terminal performance combined with excellent accuracy. At 3,100 fps muzzle velocity with 2,021 foot-pounds of energy, this load carries enough steam to deliver quick, ethical results on deer and similar-sized game.
The boattail design with a 0.400 ballistic coefficient keeps the bullet stable and minimizes wind drift out to distance. The polymer tip is engineered to resist deformation during flight, meaning you maintain a flatter trajectory than traditional soft points. This is the kind of load that rewards good shooting fundamentals—group it tight at 100 yards and you've got a lethal platform out past 250 yards with minimal holdover adjustment.
When the bullet connects, the contoured jacket peels back methodically while the alloyed lead core stays bonded and drives through the vitals. This controlled expansion maximizes stopping energy without fragmenting into useless pieces that skip off ribs or waste meat. The Lubalox coating (Winchester's proprietary black oxide finish) reduces barrel fouling and engraving forces, keeping your rifle cleaner through a hunting season.
This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, and uses reloadable nickel-plated brass cases with boxer primers. It comes in convenient 20-round boxes, making it easy to stock up for practice or the season ahead. The 95-grain weight strikes an ideal balance for the .243—enough bullet to anchor deer-sized game, but light enough to maintain the caliber's famous low recoil.
This load is purpose-built for deer, antelope, and medium-sized game. The 95-grain bullet and controlled expansion provide the balance of velocity retention and penetration needed for quick, humane harvests. The caliber's manageable recoil and flat trajectory make it particularly effective in the hands of hunters who want accuracy without shoulder punishment.
The polymer tip resists deformation during flight, which means the bullet maintains its aerodynamic profile downrange. This preserves velocity and energy better than traditional open-tip bullets, giving you a flatter trajectory and more consistent long-range accuracy. The tip also initiates controlled expansion upon impact for reliable terminal performance.
Yes. Winchester produces these in reloadable nickel-plated brass cases with boxer primers, so you can reload them if you have the equipment and experience. The nickel plating also makes the cases easier to size and less prone to corrosion in storage.
With a 0.400 ballistic coefficient and 3,100 fps muzzle velocity, the Ballistic Silvertip stays effective well past 250 yards on medium game. The boattail design and polymer tip work together to minimize wind drift and velocity loss downrange, making it a solid choice for both shorter timber shots and moderate open-country hunting.
