Hey all!
As some of you may know, I'm a HUGE, HUGE fan of the .357 magnum round. I've got a Ruger GP 100 that is my go-to primary defense gun. I have amassed some defense loads for the gun to test, as well as reviewed ballistic tests. I've settled on the Winchester Silvertip .357 magnum 145 grain load.
But, I can't find much of it ANYWHERE!!! The rounds I've shot came from a gun show, one old box of Silvertips in the old style orange and red box.
So I'm wondering, did Winchester do away with this classic load? I sure hope not! I have been looking online using ammoseek.com for months, but it doesn't ever show up. I have seen package are for this load in the new modern looking designs from Winchester, so it seems like it was made at least relatively recently. But I can find none of it!
Can someone out there point me in the right direction? Has Winchester really discontinued the great Silvertip 145 grain .357 magnum load?
Thanks for the help!
