Yeah its a little dirty... but its cheap range ammo. They are not going to use exensive clean burning powder in that cheap ammo or the price would go up.

Are you sure its not the Winclean?
I got some in error once...yellow chunks everywhere...never again!
I used the white box several times, never noticed it being overly nasty.

yellow chunks? i've noticed something similar in my 1911 but i've been shooting Wolf in it. ??? i shoot the winchester 9mm value packs regularly and i don't think they're that dirty.

Good stuff, dirty isn't an issue if you have a reliable weapon.

not true. you still have to clean all of that stuff out of your pistol.

yeah, but some pistols will run with that shit all globbed up in them, and some won't.

My P89 hasn't been cleaned since 1997, swear to god. Still running, and won't be cleaned till it quits running.

I can't shoot more than 500 or so rounds through my Kimber Elite before it starts getting sticky and jams one or two.

Some guns are made to handle the crap better than others, I believe is the point.

It os Winchester. Do you really think it is good ammo???

It leaves a noticably larger amount of carbon residue after a good range session compared to other standard brands.
Nothing a standard cleaning doesn't take care of.

You should clean your gun when you get back from the range anyways so I don't see it as an issue. A little more work? Maybe but not more than a couple minutes. I guess I am just spoiled cause my P228 can handle any ammo without problems.

You are joking, right? if not I hope you don't rely on a never cleaned weapon for self defense!
