So does anyone have more info than is on the ammo boxes and advertising?

Same bullet as the Personal Protection round in the white box.

I can tell you that it didn't feed worth a hoot in my Kel-tec P11.

I'm assuming you're referring to the SXT, in which case it is Winchester's high-end hollowpoint --not the same as the white box.

Anyway, these are/were the loads (off the top of my head):

-95 gr. .380 ACP (I think)
-147 gr. 9mm Para
-180 gr. .40 S&W
-230 gr. .45 ACP

Generally, they're not considered to be quite as good as say the Speer Gold Dot. However, if you put it in the right place, I doubt an assailant would say, "You shot me with the possibly-somewhat-not-as-good SXT round, so I ain't goin' down!" :neener:

He is refering to a load only made for one of the big box stores. It comes in a black 50 round box. It also comes in fmj.

Here is a thread about it.

It's a very pretty bullet, but any half-way competent mall ninja will tell you that you need a nickel case on that thing :)

Are there any actual test reviews on the self defense sxz? I have searched for two days and cannot find anything.
