Winchester Ballistic Silvertip .45-70 Government
The Ballistic Silvertip represents Winchester's commitment to combining innovative design with proven hunting performance. This .45-70 Government load pairs a 300-grain polymer-tipped bullet with a boat-tail design engineered to minimize drag and maximize long-range accuracy.
Ballistic Design
Polymer Tip Construction — The sharp polymer tip initiates rapid, controlled expansion upon impact while maintaining structural integrity for deep penetration. The sleek nose profile reduces air resistance, extending effective range and maintaining velocity downrange.
Boat-Tail Design — The tapered rear section improves aerodynamic efficiency, resulting in flatter trajectories and more consistent velocity retention at distance.
Performance Characteristics
- Velocity: 1880 feet per second
- Bullet Weight: 300 grains
- Expansion: Controlled penetration with reliable expansion
- Core Material: Lead-alloy construction for weight retention and deep penetration
- Jacket Design: Contoured jacket optimizes energy transfer and expansion characteristics
Practical Application
This ammunition excels for hunters pursuing medium to large game at extended ranges. The controlled expansion profile prevents over-fragmentation while delivering the penetration necessary for ethical, effective harvests. The boat-tail design and polymer tip work together to maintain accuracy even when shooting beyond typical hunting distances.
Packaging: 20 rounds per box, 10 boxes per case (200 rounds total)
