UPLAND GAME 29

ENGINEERED FOR UPLAND GAME

Whether working corn stubble fields for wild flying pheasants or rough mountainsides for a host of other tough upland game birds, Winchester has honed its shotshell technology in the coverts of America’s open lands and has a load with the right shot size and precise performance needed for your hunt. See page 44 for the full lineup of upland game loads and detailed ballistics information.

Rooster ® XR ® Made to hunt one of the toughest game birds found (but suited for virtually all upland game), Rooster XR features game-changing Shot-Lok technology. Shot-Lok features a resin poured over the shot where it hardens and acts as a buffer that protects shot from deformation upon the forces placed on it when fired. The hardened resin then shatters and flies free providing for tighter, longer-range patterns.

Super Pheasant ® Part of Winchester’s Advanced Technology offerings, Super Pheasant is built with extra-hard copper-plated lead shot and specially engineered wads to deliver high-velocity penetration and superior pattern density. The high brass magnum loads boast a velocity of 1,450 fps at the muzzle. It’s available in 12 and 20 gauges with a 12-gauge steel shot offering for hunters requiring lead-free shot.

Super X ® Super X is one of the most diverse and proven lines of shot- shells in history and brings with it decades of shotshell know- how packed in every hull. The Super X line boasts nearly 20 upland and field loads available in 12, 16, 20, 28 and 410, plus an exceptional line-up of high-brass game loads suitable for bird hunting as well. Super X offers the best mix of in-the-field or on-the-range quality with off-the-shelf value.
