The old Winchester SilverTip Bullet - 24hourcampfire A 160 or 175 284 Silvertip would probably make a very good 7x57 bullet except they never made a 7mm version; they damn sure made that 130gr 270 bullet work though I think Magnums brought the Silvertip experiment to a close but like the Remington Bronze Point, there are a few loadings that did work very well
The old Winchester SilverTip Bullet - 24hourcampfire I had one blow up on the left front shoulder of a 8 point Michigan whitetail at 50 yards Fired from a 1899 Savage in 303 Savage Made a big mess of the front shoulder, no penetration Last Silvertip I used on deer Started Handloading after that, excellent results with 150 grain Hornady round nose out of the same gun
45-70 300 gr. Nosler Ballistic Silvertip. - 24hourcampfire JSH--- Nosler has a recommended minimum impact velocity listed for that bullet as 1800 so while I'm sure you will kill any whitetail you shoot at you may not get much or any expansion
old school Winchester silvertip bullets? - 24HOURCAMPFIRE The "old school" Silvertip could be a decent bullet--if the jacket was heavy enough, but that apparently depended on what Winchester decided to do that decade I have seen them expand perfectly on bigger game at relatively high velocities, and come apart on small big game at moderate velocities
Where to obtain Winchester Silvertip bullets for loading? The original Silvertip was a tougher bullet than the most recent version of the original silvertip The new version is simply a nosler ballistic tip Copy Link to Clipboard
Winchester 145 gr. Silvertip 357 Magnum - 24HOURCAMPFIRE I carried the 145 gr Silvertip back in the day in my K frame 357 sixguns Another load I liked back then was the Remington mid velocity 125 gr hollowpoint That 125 gr mid velocity load ran about 1250 fps from a 4" barrel and was easier to manage shooting fast than the full house magnum loads that ran 1400 fps
WTB Winchester-Western Silvertip Bear Box - 24hourcampfire Hoogie: I have collected the "Silvertip" (Grizzly Bear) boxed Winchester ammo for decades and have many of them Including boxes in 303 Savage, 300 Savage, 35 Remington Autoloading, 30 Remington Autoloading, 375 H H, 257 Roberts, 270, 30 06, 300 H H, 348 Winchester etc etc etc All are in excelent+ condition
The old Winchester SilverTip Bullet - 24hourcampfire That 30 cal 180 Silvertip was a lightening bolt on Pa deer !! I actually tried to find some to handload in my fathers Pre-64 Mod 70 '06, just for nastalgia, but couldn't find any You of course are right in your assesment of Winchesters decision on ending the "Silvertip" line
What is it about the older win silvertip bullets. . . At least at standard cartridge velocities I'm still savoring a box of 130gr 270 Silvertips My daughter and I used them to take our doe this season They worked wonderfully 54gr of IMR 4350 and a cci primer and we are good to go Nostalgia plays into it too For me the Silvertip and round nose Core Lokt are reminders of simpler times Good times
