pitweiler Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) I just bought a box of Winchester Deer Season XP in .243. It's a 95 grain bullet with an "eXtreme Point". It's a new offering from Winchester specifically designed for deer. Specs are 3100fps from a 24 inch tube, .376 BC. It's a flat base ballistic tip type bullet. Maybe I can call up a public land Georgia buck and see how they work.

Pygmy Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Good luck..Make sure you don't hit a ham... I'd stay away from shoulders, too, with that bullet.. I imagine it will be devastating if you hit 'em in the ribcage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitweiler Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 I think the bullet is supposed to be rapid expansion but the core is supposed to provide optimal penetration. I want to shoot one into some water jugs to get an idea of what it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
