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 - 38 Grain CPHP - Aguila - 500 Rounds

Are you traveling to parts unknown to hunt the majestic Rocky Mountain elk, and you would also like ammo that’s also capable of stopping aggressive grizzly bears dead in their tracks? Then you have found the wrong ammo. But if you’re looking forward to hunting the majestic chipmunk or the elusive two-liter bottle, you are going to love this 22 LR ammo by Aguila. This cartridge sports a 38 grain bullet. By shedding a couple grains off the average 22 LR bullet’s weight this round reliably achieves a supersonic muzzle velocity out of a rifle’s barrel, thus serving up the flat trajectory which makes hitting distant targets far easier. The bullet’s copper plating keeps the lead in its core from aggressively fouling your firearm’s barrel. Once the hollow point bullet finds itself plunging into a varmint, it reacts by mushrooming outward. Terminal performance like that could spell the difference between a severely upset rodent and a dead one. Aguila’s Mexican-made ammo is synonymous with reliable rimfire primers. These 500 brass-cased beauts are a great pick for rifles, revolvers, semi-automatic pistols, you name it!
