Winchester Wins Multiple Awards For Duty And Training .223 Ammunition For The FBI


8/30/2005
Winchester Ammunition has recently won the competition for .223 duty and training ammunition for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. In order to meet the tough standards established by the FBI for their duty ammunition, Winchester collaborated with Nosler� and used their outstanding .223, 60 gr. Partition� Bullet. This high performance bullet, coupled with Winchester�s stringent loading capabilities, provided the balance between penetration, expansion and retained weight through all of the barriers in the tough FBI Barrier Testing.

The training ammunition also posed unique challenges in that it had to be completely non-toxic. Winchester met this challenge with our Super Clean NT� product which features a 55 gr. copper jacketed knurled tin bullet and non-toxic primer, and Winchester met the accuracy and reliability that the FBI requires in their duty and training ammunition.

This new Winchester Ranger� Partition product will be available soon to all Law Enforcement Agencies under the symbol Q3283. The Super Clean NT jacketed tin core product is currently available under the symbol Q3262.

Bend,

Go wind of the FLETC issues with the non green ammo and some recent changes in wind direction recently.

This ain't over!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Currently "Optimum" includes aspects of training costs that encompass the details down to the nitty gritty of frequency of range filter change frequency.

I am concerned that a false economy is afoot, but then that ain't new for the feds. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

The choice for now, will continue to evolve, I am sure.
