This 9mm round from Winchester’s Silvertip line of ammunition is really easy on the eyes. If you came here looking for the prettiest pistol cartridge, you’re in luck. But its lustrous sheen isn’t the only reason you’ll benefit from this round’s 147 grain jacketed hollow point bullet.

The bullet possesses a deep nose cavity, designed to translate its pounding close range energy into terminal expansion for maximum stopping power. The bullet jacket features an electroless nickel finish – hence its silver color – to reduce fouling and friction within the bore. That jacket’s profile is contoured to promote reliable feeding and streamlined for superior accuracy, and its six notches create fault lines that direct uniform expansion within soft tissue.

This heavyweight bullet’s consistent charge of propellant supplies a 1,010 fps muzzle velocity. That’s well below supersonic, and accordingly a little quieter – perfect for a suppressor. Winchester’s new run brass case ought to duck in and out of any handgun’s chamber reliably, and is well worth reloading after you’ve rescued it from the floor!

Q: this isn't a +p ammo is it?

Posted On: 4/5/2021 By: DOUGLAS SCHIEPPE

A: No sir, this isn't +P ammo.

Q: Does the nickel put wear on the barrel? It sure does feel slick and it is a thin coating, but on the other hand, isn't nickel hard? (I already have some, and it works great in my gun. At my age, I'm pretty subsonic :-), and I like the lower recoil of the 147: so I'm choosing among 147 g loads.)

Posted On: 12/17/2020 By: Steve

A: Hello Steve! No need to worry – that nickel alloy plating is significantly softer than the steel a barrel is made of. Even steel bullet jackets are too soft to damage a steel barrel.

Q: What is the difference between HST and JHP? Which ammo is better for 9mm M&P Shield? Last time, I ordered Federal JHP 147 grain. Is this ammo comparable? Thank you.

Posted On: 11/25/2020 By: Clarissa

A: Hello Clarissa! Interestingly enough, "HST" doesn't mean actually anything. It is simply Federal's own brand name for that particular design of jacketed hollow point (JHP) bullet. The HST bullet is high quality, although Winchester's own Silvertip bullet has remained virtually unchanged for decades for reason other than that it works very well. I personally believe the HST to be the better of the two, but that's not to say the Silvertip isn't also very effective. I'd hardly consider the Silvertip a compromise. Both cartridges should function flawlessly in an M&P Shield. If you'd like something truly exceptional, then I'd recommend Speer Gold Dot: luckygunner.com/9mm-124-grain-p-jhp-speer-le-gold-dot-duty-50-rounds. That's cop ammo, with a bonded bullet jacket and precision engineered hollow point nose cavity. It's also overpressure (which your handgun can handle), so it delivers a slightly flatter tragectory and greater energy on impact.

Q: How well would this ammunition perform with a 16" barrel carbine? Thanks.

Posted On: 11/22/2020 By: James

A: Hi James! This ammo should function great in a 9mm carbine. I'm certain you'll get a faster muzzle velocity than 1,010 fps, but I'm afraid I can't calculate just how much faster a 16" barrel will make this ammo fly.

Q: Is the Winchester 147 grain JHP silver tip a good bullet for my Glock G19 Gen 5? Also what would be the best range bullet for the same gun? Thank you

Posted On: 11/21/2020 By: Tony

A: Hi Tony! This ammo should function correctly in any firearm chambered for 9mm, your G19 included. As for the best range ammo, you should be fine so long as you're using FMJ bullets. Our selection is a bit limited at the moment thanks to the ammo drought, but we currently have a couple options in store. The Scorpio ammo (luckygunner.com/9mm-124-grain-fmj-scorpio-50-rounds) is inexpensive range brass from the Czech Republic. The only other option we have is Stelth (luckygunner.com/9mm-165-grain-tmj-stelth-subsonic-50-rounds). The Stelth is higher quality, yet its 800 fps muzzle velocity is optimized for suppressor use. It will accordingly not closely mimic the performance of most self-defense rounds. If I had to choose one for you, I'd go with the Scorpio. Please let me know if I may be of any more help!

Q: Will this fire from my Smith and Wesson MP Shield?

Posted On: 11/8/2020 By: NIkki

A: Absolutely Nikki, this is a good choice of ammo for self-defense with that handgun.

Q: Will this fire from my Springfield hellcat osp

Posted On: 9/30/2020 By: james

A: Yes indeed, this ammo would make a good choice for self-defense with your Hellcat OSP!
