EAST ALTON, IL – Winchester Ammunition is once again pushing the limits of technology to introduce a new and improved shotshell for waterfowl hunting. Blind Side® 2 (like its predecessor) utilizes hex-shaped shot, but is differentiated with a nickel-plated head and the Drylok wad system.
Taking Blind Side 2 to the next level, however, is the new Hex shot, which is more rounded and aerodynamic for improved downrange energy and tighter patterns. While the rounded edges improve in-flight characteristics, the six flat faces on each pellet offer increased lethality over traditional round shot through a tumbling action upon impact which more effectively transfers energy to the target.

An additional product enhancement that helps Blind Side 2 stand out against the competition is the Winchester patented Drylok wad system. As the name implies, waterfowl are typically around water which doesn’t mix well with gun powder. Winchester developed the patented Drylok wad system to keep moisture out for reliable ignition in any circumstance.

The nickel-plated head is more than just an aesthetic touch. Plating provides corrosion resistance for smoother and more reliable feeding and extraction despite the damp conditions often found within blind bags and waterfowl jackets. Read more

EAST ALTON, IL – Winchester launches its Copper Impact® rifle and shotshell ammunition line in 2022, now offering even more popular calibers and heavy-hitting bullet weights for big-game hunting.

Copper Impact rifle bullets are engineered with longer ogives and boattails providing higher ballistic coefficients, which increases accuracy at longer distances. With Copper Impact, a hunter gets monolithic solid copper Extreme Point® hollow-point bullets with distinctive polymer tips that create both a large-impact diameter and immediate expansion upon contact.

As a solid bullet, the Extreme Point® produces greater weight retention over standard jacketed bullets. Copper Impact bullets are permitted for use where lead-free ammunition is required, but regardless of location, this line of ammunition performs on big game from pronghorn to elk.

Copper Impact Rifle Ammunition Features:

• Large-impact-diameter Copper Extreme Point® expands immediately upon contact to deliver massive knockdown power
• Solid copper bullet design offers improved weight retention over standard jacketed lead-core bullets
• New 30 caliber, 180-grain loads for big game

Copper Impact rifle bullet offerings are expansive with more than a dozen options, from 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.8 Western and 300 Win. Mag., to shotgun slugs in both 12 and 20 gauge. Read more
