Winchester Ammunition Introduces Copper Impact Ammunition

EAST ALTON, IL (January 19, 2022) – 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. 

Winchester Ammunition Introduces Copper Impact Ammunition
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.
