[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Is Winchester Still Using Brass Jackets?

Posted: 7/17/2009 12:07:04 PM EDT

There is a permanent post above on this Brass vs. Copper jacketed ammo in Glocks but it appears to have run its course prior to my query which has gone unnoticed.

Does anyone know if Winchester is still using brass jackets? The thread above does not settle the issue as to whether or not Winchester is still manufacturing brass jacketed ammo.

While I am on the subject, does any other ammo manufacturer use brass jackets?

Winchester stopped selling the brass jacketed 9mm two or more years ago and switched over to copper.

The only other brass jacketed ammo I have personally run across was S&B 9mm circa 1999.

Just 9mm? Was 9mm the only caliber that had brass jacket?

I don't have any 9mm Glocks. Just .40's. I assume the white box Walmart fodder is not brass jacketed then.

.40 used to come in brass jacket, but winchester has also switched to copper in that caliber years ago.
