17 WSM - 15 Grain Polymer Tip - Winchester Varmint X Lead Free - 50 Rounds

A lot of power in a little package – that sums up this 17 WSM load by Winchester to a T. Ideal for hunting both predators and burrowing things, it features a 15 grain polymer tip rapid expanding bullet that also very nicely contains no toxic lead. Great for California and other environments which don’t require additional lead! This round’s bullet sports a streamlined polymer tip, thin and concentric copper alloy jacket, and lead-free core. The tip is nestled deep within the core’s cavity, and on impact abruptly plunges inward to send it flying in every direction at once. The jacket’s sidewalls are engineered specifically to promote faster and more uniform fragmentation as well. All in all we can only compare terminal performance like this bullet’s to a tiny stick of dynamite! This Varmint X Lead Free cartridge features a freshly minted straight-walled brass case, non-corrosive rimfire primer, and charge of reduced residue propellant. It’s 100 percent equipped to turn you into a prairie dog’s personal angel of death!*

22 LR - 36 Grain CPHP - Browning - 400 Rounds

Pow! Down goes the red squirrel. Pow! Goodbye Mister Crow. Pow! That raccoon who’s been eyeballing your trash cans? A raccoon no more. Pow pow pow! There go those three empty cans that have been bothering you. And you’ve still got 394 rounds left, because you had the foresight to order this big box of 22 LR by Browning! This cartridge features the target shooter and varmint hunter’s best friend: the copper plated hollow point projectile. Its protective exterior plating helps to keep a firearm’s barrel from fouling up too quickly, and its nose cavity delivers that expanding terminal performance which anchors varmints so quickly. Its lighter weight gives the CPHP bullet a 1,280 fps muzzle velocity when fired out of a rifle’s barrel, and it does indeed have enough pep to cycle a semi-automatic pistol or rifle. Browning’s 22 LR doesn’t just feature uniform brass cases, non-corrosive rimfire primers and clean-burning propellant. It is also made in America! Please order four boxes if you want the whole case.
