357 MAGNUM WINCHESTER SILVERTIP 145 GRAIN JHP (20 ROUNDS)

No fancy bells and whistles. No precious metal, either. Winchester Silvertip series ammunition is designed to do one thing and one thing only: give you the power to defend yourself should the need ever arise.

But we do reckon this ammo would be effective for hunting with a lever-action rifle as well! It is loaded with 145 grain jacketed hollow point projectiles, which wear lustrous (albeit completely cosmetic) nickel plating on their jackets. The JHP’s profile is engineered to ensure reliable feeding and reliable expansion. Look closely and you’ll see the rim’s symmetrical array of skives, which help the jacket split apart evenly as it tunnels through a soft medium.

The Silvertip JHP is perfectly nonmagnetic, so you can test it out at any range before you commit to it for self-defense. These rounds’ virgin reloadable brass cases, surefire noncorrosive Boxer primers and diligently loaded propellant charges all demonstrate why the Silvertip brand has remained popular for over four decades.
