Winchester Ranger 9mm Luger Ammo P 147 Grain Bonded JHP ammo review offers the following information; Founded in 1866 in New Haven, CT Winchester is as American as apple pie. One of the most commonly used manufacturers for a wide range of shooting needs, Winchester USA is an outstanding pick due to its reliability, consistency and durability. From the start Winchester was one of the top designers of rifle ammunition and were the first to introduce some of the top rifle calibers that are still used by marksmen today.

 

This round’s bullet is a bonded jacketed hollow point. Its core and jacket are fused together, and therefore nearly incapable of being pried apart by resistance from barriers ranging from heavy fabric to car doors. Even through safety glass such a bullet is able to retain the majority of its initial mass, ensuring it keeps the requisite momentum for deep penetration. This bullet’s hollow nose cavity acts to create terminal expansion, providing maximum energy transferral, a cavernous wound cavity, and a lesser chance of dangerous overpenetration. Its bonded jacket and core help at this phase as well, preventing the kind of fragmentation that could make its wound channel shallower. At 147 grains, this is the heaviest bullet you can usually find in a 9mm factory load. As the result it builds up superior momentum to produce an even deeper wound channel. To compound that, as a P round you’ll receive a boosted muzzle velocity that inflicts even greater damage downrange. (Check and make sure your handgun is rated for overpressure ammunition before you risk destroying it with intense chamber pressures.)
