Product Overview
Winchester loads this 150-grain Jacketed Hollow Point at 2390 feet per second, producing 1902 foot-pounds of muzzle energy. The hollow point cavity initiates expansion immediately upon tissue contact, creating rapid energy transfer that drops deer quickly. Unlike pointed hollow points that can't be used in tubular magazines, this design features a flat profile that feeds safely in lever-action rifles while still delivering the terminal performance hollow point shooters expect.
The JHP construction favors expansion over penetration, making it well-suited to broadside and slightly quartering shots where the bullet needs to damage lungs and heart rather than punch through heavy shoulder bone. This aggressive expansion creates substantial wound channels that result in short tracking distances—a practical advantage in thick cover where blood trails matter.
Deer hunters working dense timber appreciate the JHP's terminal characteristics. When shots present inside 75 yards, the retained velocity drives dramatic expansion that anchors animals quickly. Predator hunters also find value in this load, as the expanding bullet delivers decisive results on coyotes without the overpenetration concerns of heavier, deeper-driving designs.
- Hollow point expansion initiates immediately on contact, creating larger wound channels than soft point designs for faster incapacitation on broadside shots.
- Flat-nose JHP profile feeds reliably through tubular magazines, combining hollow point terminal performance with lever-action compatibility.
- Super-X pricing keeps ammunition costs reasonable for hunters who want to practice regularly with their hunting load.
- Rapid energy transfer reduces the distance wounded animals travel, making recovery easier in thick cover where tracking proves difficult.
- Aggressive expansion can limit penetration on quartering shots where bullets must travel through shoulder muscle and bone to reach vital organs.
- At close range where velocity remains high, expansion may be violent enough to cause significant meat damage around the wound channel.
- Hollow point cavity can theoretically plug with debris when shooting through brush, though this rarely proves problematic in real hunting conditions.
