Winchester WinClean 9mm 115gr FMJ addresses the single biggest health concern at indoor ranges: airborne lead from combustion. The brass-enclosed-base bullet design seals the lead core from powder gases at the moment of ignition, eliminating the primary source of lead vaporization. Paired with a lead- and heavy-metal-free primer, this load keeps the firing line cleaner without changing the ballistics you rely on for practice. At 1,190 fps and 362 ft-lb, the WinClean load matches Winchester White Box point-of-impact, so your zero stays consistent when you switch between the two.
Built for the Box
The enclosed-base FMJ traps the lead core inside a brass jacket that extends over the bullet heel. When the primer ignites the powder charge, combustion gases push against brass — not exposed lead. The result: noticeably less smoke, reduced barrel fouling, and fewer airborne particulates at the firing point. The lead-free primer completes the package, removing heavy metals from the ignition train without sacrificing reliability. Factory-new brass cases are boxer-primed and fully reloadable. Each case holds 500 rounds packaged as 10 boxes of 50.
