5.56X45 WINCHESTER RANGER 64 GRAIN BONDED SOLID BASE (20 ROUNDS)

About This Winchester 5.56x45mm Ammunition

This 5.56x45 cartridge from Winchester’s Ranger line of ammunition features a relatively heavy 64 grain bullet. The bonded solid base projectile is not very common, but it’s essentially a souped up soft point. The jacket and core are fused together, promoting the kind of weight retention that overcomes common urban barriers with ease. If you cut this bullet in half lengthwise, you could admire its thick, jacketed base. Its momentum makes mushrooming wider and more reliable, making the BSB highly effective at its job.

This round’s bullet is also well balanced for rotational stability, which alongside its 2,935 fps muzzle velocity gives it the ability to transfer 500 ft lbs of energy to a target at 220 yards. Winchester also tended to the little details: A lacquered primer will keep this self-defense round safer until it is needed, and a low flash propellant charge will preserve your ability to see after you’ve fired your first shot in the dark. Keep these rounds in a magazine where they’ll be ready to help you out!
