I love ShootingTheBull, mostly because he is no-BS. That, and a through tester, highly entertaining, and generally knowledgeable about terminal ballistics.

His latest test is of Winchester’s Train & Defend ammunition, a novel line that pairs a matching set of conventional round-nose ammo (the “train” portion) and hollow-points (the “defend”). In short, Winchester get its right. The rounds match and the “defend” ammunition performs admirably.

I expect to see other companies offering similar matching ammunition in the future. It just makes too much (financial) sense not to.
