• Alloyed Lead Core: Provides superior weight retention and penetration
• Contoured Jacket: Works with the polymer tip for controlled expansion
• Lubalox Coating: Black oxide finish reduces barrel fouling and chamber pressures
• Rapid Controlled Expansion: Delivers immediate knockdown with reliable penetration

Performance and Design

The sharp polymer tip and sleek nose profile work in concert with the boattail design to deliver superior ballistic coefficients. This means flatter trajectories and less wind drift at extended ranges—critical advantages for precision hunting.

The alloyed lead core is engineered to retain weight during expansion, ensuring that energy is transferred deep into the target. The contoured jacket controls expansion rates, preventing premature fragmentation while still delivering the immediate knockdown hunters expect.

The Lubalox coating provides a secondary benefit: reduced fouling in your barrel and lower engraving forces, which means cleaner shooting and easier maintenance.

The Winchester Difference

Ballistic Silvertip ammunition represents decades of Winchester's engineering excellence. This is ammunition built for hunters who understand that precision and power are not mutually exclusive—they are complementary.
