Winchester Rolls Out Super Match

Super Match, a recently released new line of competition-ready ammunition from Winchester, includes match-grade centerfire pistol, rifle, and shotshell ammunition designed to set the standard for competitive performance. This extensive line of ammunition is precision-engineered for serious competitors that demand absolute consistency, reliability, and results. From dynamic action shooting to long-range precision, Winchester Super Match delivers. 

“Super Match is the answer for the competitive shooter,” says Kyle Masinelli, vice president of manufacturing at Winchester Ammunition. “The extensive line covers needs for all categories of dynamic action-shooting competition, and it delivers exceptional accuracy, reliability, and consistency. Our product engineers collaborated with some of the best competition shooters in the world to develop this ammunition and deliver the best possible product for competitive and recreational shooters.”

Centerfire pistol offerings—available in 9mm,.40 S&W,.38 Super Auto+P, and .45 Auto—include flat nose projectiles for ultimate accuracy or round nose projectiles for optimal cycling. The 9mm offerings have both flat nose and round nose projectile options along with multiple grain weights. All offerings are primed with high-sensitivity primers to reliably ignite in tuned competition guns and are optimized for minor or major power factors. 

For 3-gun and other dynamic rifle shooting competitions, Winchester Super Match offers .223 Rem. and 5.56 NATO loads that feature heavy-for-caliber boat tail hollow point (BTHP) projectiles for competition readiness straight out of the box. Super Match precision rifle ammunition is available in .308 Win., 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, 6 ARC, and 7.62 NATO. The .308 Win. and 6.5 Creedmoor offerings feature either a BTHP projectile or BC Max polymer-tipped projectile for ultimate long-range performance. The 6 ARC features a BTHP projectile, and the 6.5 PRC features the BC Max polymer-tipped projectile. The BC Max bullet is an all-new projectile from Winchester that is manufactured with next-generation bullet-assembly equipment to deliver unprecedented accuracy and the highest ballistic coefficient available from Winchester.

Super Match 12-gauge shotshells are available in three configurations: 1⅛-ounce No. 7.5, 00 Buck (nine pellets), and a 1-ounce rifled slug. The shells are engineered with thick-walled hulls and high brass heads to maintain shape in box-magazine-fed shotguns and can handle clay, paper, or steel targets.
