Winchester Waterfowl Loads

Winchester has been at the forefront of developing high-tech, lead-alternative loads for waterfowl hunters since the non-lead mandate of the late 1980s. That innovation continues today with the company's Blind Side 2 shotshells featuring uniquely shaped Hex Steel Shot, along with its Bismuth loads that have a special buffer to protect the pellets and provide denser patterns. New this year in the Bismuth line is a 3-inch, 28-gauge load with 1 ounce of No. 5 shot at 1,300 fps.

Winchester .400 Legend

Building on the success of the .350 Legend, Winchester releases a new straight-wall rifle cartridge for deer hunters looking for more downrange energy at longer distances. Winchester reports the .400 Legend produces about 25 percent more energy than its little brother, putting it on par with the .450 Bushmaster but with less recoil. The initial .400 Legend loads feature a 190-grain Extreme Point, 215-grain Power Point and subsonic 300-grain Open Tip Range bullet.
