Anyone used Winchester's new Powermax bullet?

It's bonded and has a hollow-point. Good looking bullet; they claim it is ideal for Whitetails.

I'd be interested to know if anyone has taken any game with it, or how accurate it might be? Has anyone observed muzzle velocities?

Cartridge offerings are only in .277 and .308 caliber bullets, in 130 & 150 gr. weights, respectively.

Interested to hear anyone's experiences.

Many thanks,

friar

Just bought a box of those myself to try out for my son's .270 Win. I have read a few good reports as far as accuracy goes. I hope so, I have not had the best luck with Winchester factory ammo, with the exception of the Ballistic Silvertips in my .280. They are a good looking round, not that looks do any killing but if they shoot like they look, should be good
