303 British Bullets by Winchester

Question:

Hi.  Does anyone know the difference between a winchester 180 grain 303 Silvertip and a 180 grain Powerpoint?  I haven’t found any tables for the Silvertip. Thanks

Response:

Assuming you are talking ballistics, the loads should be almost exact. The only difference being the type of bullet.  Have you checked out the new Hornady "Light Magnums"?  You’ll pay a premium price but will get a premium load and bullet.  Ideally the "Light Magnums" are supposed to step up your rifle "one to two calibers" without causing excessive pressures.  Its worth a try if your going to use the .303 for some quality hunting.
