What is this stuff?

[BruceV]

Went looking to find some .22 LR to buy for the weekend. Wal-Mart had only .22 Shorts at $3.37/50 rds. They had no other .22LR of any sort. Went to K-Mart and found a new to me Winchester .22 LR round. Manufactured by Winchester, it's called Dynapoint. It is .22 LR 40 gr. HP copperplated. Comes in a 500 rd. box w/ Winchester in red ink, Dynapoint in blue ink and the other information in black ink. The box is white pasteboard.

This K-Mart had only this one box of .22 LR, with no other types in stock so I bought what they had. Is this a common loading that I just happen not to have previously encountered or is it a off beat load. Is it just standard .22 LR or is it some specialized load? Sincerely. BruceV.

Dynapoint has been around for a couple decades. It is supposed to be a high performance hollow point & is a competitor to CCI's Stinger.

Cool. I had never seen Winchester .22LR ammo so marked. Given your description, I think I'll reserve it for my little S&W M-18. Sincerely. BruceV.

Seems I'v heard that Wally world and winchester can;t come to terms on price of dynapoints so no stock in store.
