Winchester Small Rifle Primers In Stock

WINCHESTER Small Rifle Primers In Stock produces seven different primers to more than your reloading

needs for short shells rifles and handgun catridges. However Small Pistol Primers (SPP) and Small Rifle Primers (SRP)

are virtually identical in size as are the primer pockets of their respective cases.

dependable ignition under any shooting condition. Winchester

tests their primers rigorously for consistency and sensitivity at temperatures

and conditions far beyond the range of normal usage.

Winchester Small Rifle Primers In Stock does not find occasional

use by women and young children for deer hunting because of its low recoil.

Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cartridges smaller than 6mm (e.g., .243 Winchester) for deer hunting.

This cartridge is also sometimes known as the .22 Vermonter or the .22 Watkins Original Swift.

[3] Along with the .220 Swift, the .22-250 was one of the high-velocity .

22 caliber cartridges that developed a reputation for remote wounding effects known as

hydrostatic shock in the late 1930s and early 1940s.

Combine accuracy, consistency, reliable performance and an affordable price tag,

and the result is the perfect round for the avid varmint hunter.

American Eagle Varmint & Predator loads feature reloadable brass and Federal

primers with a jacketed hollow-point bullet

that expands explosively on impact for maximum lethality.

 Winchester Small Rifle Primers In Stock History

WINCHESTER .22-250 Rem Primer Caliber started life as a wildcat cartridge developed from the

.250-3000 Savage case necked down to take a .224 caliber bullet.

In the early days of the WINCHESTER .22-250 Rem Primer Caliber there were several different versions

that varied only slightly from one to the next, including one developed in 1937 by Grosvenor Watkins, J. E. Gabby

and J. B. Smith who named their version the 22 Vermonter.^[3]

However ,The WINCHESTER Rem is in much wider use and has a larger variety of commercially

available factory ammunition than the Swift. This makes it generally cheaper to shoot.

The smaller powder load also contributes to more economical shooting for users who load their own ammunition.

Due to its rimless case. The WINCHESTER .22-250 Rem also feeds from a box magazine more reliably than the Swift,

a semi-rimmed cartridge susceptible to rim lock.

In 1937 Phil Sharpe, one of the first gunsmiths to build a rifle for the WINCHESTER .22-250 Rem

“The Swift performed best when it was loaded to approximately full velocity,” whereas,

“The Vermonter case permits the most flexible loading ever recorded with a single cartridge.
