Winchester's New Safari Line Engineered for World's Toughest Game
When Africa calls, so does the need for being equipped with the proper ammunition to take down the game on your hunting list - and being prepared for game that may not be. Winchester's new Safari Ammunition line was engineered to not only tackle the toughest game in Africa and the rest of the continents with supreme confidence, but to provide performance and versatility in virtually any situation.
Offered in the venerable .375 H&H Magnum, .416 Rigby and .458 Winchester Magnum, as well as the .416 Remington Magnum cartridge, the new Winchester® Safari line makes the most of these popular and proven African cartridges by pairing them with the finest bullet choices available -Nosler® Partition® and the new Nosler Solid™.
Nosler Partition bullets - with copper alloy jackets and lead-alloy cores - have long been favored around the world for accuracy and terminal performance on game. The new Nosler Solids - featuring a unique design and homogenous lead-free alloy construction - provide spectacular penetration and an impressively straight wound channel on large, thick-skinned game.
According to Glen Weeks, Winchester Centerfire Product Manager, "The Safari line was developed to eet the most demanding hunting needs. Each of the cartridges in the line provides the energy and nockdown power needed for the largest and most dangerous game. The Partition offerings are ideal for dangerous, or large thinner skin game, while the Solids will offer maximum penetration on the toughest hide and bone."
