Reviews & Ratings for Winchester Copper Impact 6.8 Western 162 Grain Copper Extreme Point Brass Cased Centerfire Rifle Ammunition — 13 reviews — Page 1

I purchased additional ammo for my 6.8 Western. I was able to obtain the same ammo my rifle was calibrated with and at a respectable price.

I bought 4 boxes and out of the 80 rounds I had 14 not chamber at all and several more that chambered hard

Patterns well in my X-bolt. I haven't used the load on actual animals, but greatly looking forward to it.

Great people to buy from super fast services and even faster shipping very Happy with my order on that 6.8 western Ammo

I got my order shipped very quickly and in 2 days it was delivered very pleased thank you

I made the first shot at 500 yds on a 10 pt Buck with the 162g Copper Impact, at an estimated energy about 1600 ft lbs,…the bullet struck the Buck in the upper Lung area. Buck moved to bed near brushy cypress thicket and after stalking 2nd shot at about 85yds dropped the Buck. I would give 5 Stars for any use of this 6.8 Western Cartridge and at ranges of 300 yds or less. I determined the first copper bullet did not mushroom more than 9-10 mm, due to reduced speed and energy at 500 yds, therefore 4 Stars.

My first shot on a 9 Pt Buck during Deer Season November 2022 in KY was at 500 yds with the Winchester 162 grain Copper Impact, in a 20 mph crosswind at approximately 30 degrees….my son was spotting and I held up 30”, top of skull with vertical crosshair on front legs…12x on Leupold scope,…..the bullet struck and the Buck bowed up in middle and came off the ground about 2’ vertically, according to my son, he and doe then moved about 30 yds into cypress thicket. We waited for about 30 minutes then moved in on the thicket, online, across an open field, with wind in our face, and about 50 yards apart, each side of underbrush, to within 100 yards of where we last saw the Buck, and waited 5-10 minutes, we heard the Buck coughing 3-4 times, with my Son to my right , he then started a low whistle and Doe followed by the Buck moved out of brush, with Leupold on 3x I placed crosshair for Lung shot at 80 yards and Buck went down. Based on my experiences, I think the solid copper bullet at 500 yds due to velocity of 2108, partially mushroomed in a top of lung hit. ….bottom line, We got the Buck… and the Ammunition performed!…..Only problem I have with Winchester 6.8 Western Ammunition, is the outrageous price and availability. If they don’t boost the production soon, in 2023!…no one is going to buy their or the Browning Rifles. I hope Optics Planet and Winchester read and understand my Recommendations!….. ASAP!! …..

Everything was great easy to locate .easy purchase and good timing on shipping costomer service is very helpful when i called .would highly recommend and will definatly be shopping again.thanks for everything

Having 6.8 W. Western rifle built buying shell now For when it is done shells are hard to fine that’s why I ordered them Did not shoot any shells yet rifle should be done by the end of January Not writing anymore

Performs exactly as outlined on the box. Used for mainly target practice at this point, but will use for hunting all big game. I would highly recommend this ammo to anyone. Great ammo and great price.
