INAUGURAL CATALOG

BROWNINGAMMO.COM

Browning Ammunition is designed to the highest standardsof innovation, precisionandtechnology. This relentless pursuit for engineering excellence is precisely what has earned the Buckmark ® its honorable distinction: The Best There Is ® . John Browning’s vision and demand, ensuring perfection for the hunter and shooter, has fueled the Browning culture for over 125 years, driving unparalleled commitment, trust and craftsmanship.

THE LEGACY LIVES ON

They identified only the most optimum calibers and bullet weights worthy of bearing the Buckmark for hunting. In addition, they focused on designs that were engineered for higher efficiencies with maximum effect in personal defense and sport shooting. Lastly, no product line is complete without everyone's favorite – rimfire.

It's the dawn of a new generation. The faces of shooting are changing and that is extremely inspiring to the engineers. That is what this company was built on: Changing demand and innovation. To create a new generation of ammunition, the brightest minds were very selective in the development of Browning Ammunition. They established the very highest standards to create The Best There Is in ammunition.

MATRIX TIP

BXR Rapid Expansion Matrix Tip is designed specifically for use on whitetail, blacktail, mule deer and antelope. The proprietary matrix tip design allows for high downrange velocity and energy retention while also initiating rapid positive expansion. The jacket and tip combination yields precision accuracy, rapid energy transfer and generates massive knockdown power.

BXR provides the energy transfer and massive knockdown power you can expect from The Best There Is in Deer ammunition.

MATRIX TIP Proprietary Matrix (copper/polymer) initiates rapid expansion Tip fragments upon impact to present large expanding hollow point Improved ballistic coefficient with added on-target energy transfer

RAPID EXPANSION Designed specifically for whitetail, blacktail, mule deer and antelope Expansion energy is efficiently and effectively transferred on target
