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 8" vital zone, ±4" 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 500 yards.

Product Overview
Winchester's Super-X 150-grain Power Max Bonded is for hunters who want a bonded bullet rather than a plain soft point at this weight. It uses Winchester's bonded Protected Hollow Point, a lead-core hollow point with the jacket bonded to the core. It leaves the muzzle at 2,850 fps with 2,705 ft-lbs of energy.
Compared with Winchester's Super-X 150-grain Power-Point, the Power Max Bonded is the same load at the muzzle: both leave at 2,850 fps and kick the same in the same rifle. The Power-Point is a plain lead-core soft point, so the choice between them comes down to the bullet alone. Compared with Nosler's Trophy Grade 150-grain Partition, whose jacket wall divides the lead core in two, the Power Max Bonded starts 50 fps faster with 94 more ft-lbs. The Partition kicks about 2 percent less in the same rifle.
Buy the Power Max Bonded if you want a bonded 150-grain bullet and do not want to give up any muzzle speed to the Power-Point. Pick the Power-Point if a plain soft point is all you need; Winchester markets it for whitetail and big game. Pick the Partition if you prefer Nosler's divided-core bullet and a little less recoil. If recoil matters most, Hornady's American Whitetail 140-grain, an InterLock soft point, kicks about 10 percent less in the same rifle.
- Leaves the muzzle 20 fps faster than Federal's Power-Shok 150-grain
- Matches the 2,705 ft-lbs of Sig Sauer's Elite Hunter 140-grain at the muzzle with a bullet 10 grains heavier
- Carries 18 more ft-lbs at the muzzle than Hornady's American Whitetail 140-grain
- Hornady's American Whitetail 140-grain leaves the muzzle 90 fps faster
- Sig Sauer's Elite Hunter 140-grain leaves the muzzle 100 fps faster
- Kicks about 10 percent harder than Sig Sauer's Elite Hunter 140-grain in the same rifle
