Woah! Do our eyes deceive us, or does this 12 Gauge ammunition have OD green hulls? Why, we do believe it does! That could only mean this is Winchester’s own military grade double-aught!
As you may already have surmised, Winchester’s military loads are suitable for home defense. That’s kind of their intended application. But this shell is also a fine way to enjoy quality time with your shotgun at the range, and it’d prove more than enough for exhilarating whitetail encounters.
This shell’s crimped hull stores nine individual pellets of 00 buck. Each bead is made of solid lead, weighs about 54 grains, and starts its journey out of the muzzle at a rate of about 1,325 fps. Land even half of that spread on your target, and it’ll be mission accomplished – whatever the mission might be.
Some military surplus is corrosive. This particular ammo was manufactured way, way too recently to pose any threat of corrosion.
