wwb personal defense ammo

**Bowhunter** · January 9th, 2009, 05:08 PM

Greeting. I tried using the search engine but came up with very little success. I am wondering if any of you have any experience with the Winchester white box 147 grain personal defense round. I bought a box to see how the how the heavier bullets would perform out of my m&p 9c. They shot accurate I was amazed. So I have two questions.

1. Does anyone have any pictures of the wwb personal defense expanded?
2. Whats the difference between these and the Winchester Ranger?

I’m not looking into a bullet debate forum on which one is better or which is the best..
I just like the way the wwb PD holds their group and looking to see how they expand.

Thanks in advance.

The ballistics information, at least from winchester, does not show any major differences. Here is the WWB information and here is the RA9T Ranger information. Personally I've found that all of my 9s prefer the heavier bullet weights but that is just me and YMMV.

dad's got the 125gr sjhp .38 spl +p load in his snubby; I got the 147gr jhp 9mm load for my Glock; I sometimes get the 110gr sjhp .357 mag load; I've usedthe 115gr jhp 9mm load in the past; Bass Pro sells the SZT line which is basically the WWB Personal Defense line with a light coating of Lubalox to deter copper fouling (the 9mm 115gr jhp load is NEVER in stock ~~ ie: they sell it as quick as they get it);

the premium stuff is great, but the older stuff is only marginally outclassed and costs much less; you get more dollar for dollar spent on defense loads
