How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 4" vital zone, ±2" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 100 yards.

Product Overview
Winchester's Silvertip 60-grain JHP is a jacketed hollow point .32 ACP load made for personal defense. A plain jacket covers the lead core, and the nose cavity is left open. Muzzle figures are 970 fps and 125 ft-lbs.
Zeroed at 25 yards it is 2.0 inches low at 50, where it holds 885 fps with 104 ft-lbs. Estimated recoil in a compact pistol is 0.8 ft-lbs, matching Speer Gold Dot 60-grain.
If you're cross-shopping, Speer Gold Dot 60-grain leaves at 960 fps and bonds its jacket to the core. Hornady Custom 60-grain XTP is 30 fps faster, at 1,000 fps and 133 ft-lbs.
- Among the mildest estimated recoil of the loads compared, about 25 percent less than Buffalo Bore's +P 60-grain Barnes TAC-XP in the same pistol
- Standard pressure, so it runs in any sound .32 ACP
- Slightly more muzzle energy than Speer Gold Dot 60-grain, the only load compared it beats there
- The least muzzle energy of the standard-pressure loads compared bar Speer Gold Dot 60-grain
- Tied with Hornady Critical Defense 60-grain FTX for the least retained energy at 50 yards
- 51 ft-lbs under Buffalo Bore's +P 60-grain Barnes TAC-XP at the muzzle
