RIFLES & SHOTGUNS
WINCHESTER delivers shotshells for hunting and sports shooting and metal cartridges for rifles the
world over. With its state-of-the-art technology, its Research & Development department constantly
improves component performance to adapt them to their final destination (accuracy, shot pattern,
range, efficiency), without neglecting contemporary ecological principles as far as noise pollution
(subsonic cartridges) and environmental pollution (biodegradable components), etc. are concerned.
WINCHESTER has retained the "pioneer" spirit and constantly cultivates a vocation for innovation. Its
WSM (WINCHESTER SHORT MAGNUM) ammunition is more compact, more powerful and causes less re-
coil than their traditional counterparts whilst being chambered in more compact, lighter guns. These
new calibres are already widely established, to the point that today, the entire gunsmith industry
offers guns for this new WINCHESTER ammunition.

TA RGET SHOTSHELLS
Shotshell performance is closely linked to the quality of its components.
Winchester manufactures its shotshells with the best gunpowder, wads, primers and tubes in a
combination that only a wealth of experience can successfully achieve.
Every Winchester shotshell has been designed and produced to hit a single target: your
complete satisfaction.
The double Base Ball Powder® Propellant
Winchester double-base powders contain a blend of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine. The grains may be spherical or crushed
depending on the type of powder. These grains are coated with a deterrent agent which acts as a burn rate moderator.
Unique advantages of double-base powder:
1. PERFECT ATMOSPHERIC STABILITY
The double chemical basis of nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine guarantees identical powder performance under different
temperatures and humidity, even in extreme conditions.
2. OPTIMAL COMBUSTION
With the double base, the nitroglycerine increases the combustion energy whilst also ensuring ignition throughout the mass
of the nitrocellulose which controls combustion progressivity. This results in total powder combustion eliminating powder
residues in the barrel.
3. ACCRUED PERFORMANCE
Double base powder results in a better spread pressure curve than other powders. This longer and slightly lower curve
generates more progressive shot acceleration and distribution even with high speed powders, controlling and decreasing
more effectively felt recoil.
The plastic wads
PLASTIC WAD TYPE “Z”
Plastic container wad with 4 compression legs
Generally used in 20 or 16 gauges shot shells or in 12ga for heavy load (X3 Plus 20ga).
PLASTIC WAD T2
Wad with 2 progressive compression sections for a Regular pattern and a soft recoil, despite the high velocity (X3 Plus).
PLASTIC WINNER WAD ( WW )
The Classic and legendary 12ga Winchester plastic container wad with 3 compression legs. A very reliable and efficient wad
invented by Winchester.
