Winchester Blind Side Ammo Expands Offerings

Based on the success of Winchester's innovative Blind Side waterfowl load, it should come as no surprise that the company is expanding the line. How? Namely by making it faster—quite a bit faster, actually. The new Winchester High Velocity Blind Side has a whopping factory-rated velocity of 1675 fps. Initial offerings will be 12-gauge only and include BB's, 1's, 2's and 6's in 3 1/2-inch, 1 3/8-ounce loads and 1's, 2's, 3's, and 6's in 3-inch, 1 1/8-ounce.

Additionally, a new Blind Side load is tailored to the needs of pheasant hunters in steel-only areas. The initial launch will include 2 3/4-inch, 1 1/4-ounce and 3-inch, 1 3/8-ounce 12-gauge loads in No. 5 shot. Both have a factory-rated muzzle velocity of 1400 fps.
