Deer hunters want a bullet that opens fast and puts deer down quickly, and Winchester built Deer Season XP around exactly that goal. This listing is Winchester Deer Season XP 7mm-08 Rem 140 grain Extreme Point ammunition, MPN X708DS, sold as a 200 round case. Buying your deer ammo by the case means you can zero, practice, and hunt with one consistent lot, and share it across a hunting camp or family of hunters.
The key feature is the Extreme Point bullet. It uses a large diameter polymer tip that drives rapid expansion on impact, creating a wide wound channel and transferring energy quickly on deer sized game. Winchester rates this load at 2,800 fps with 2,437 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, a strong combination for the mild recoiling 7mm-08. For hunters, that means fast, clean kills at typical whitetail distances without the recoil of larger magnum cartridges.
This load fits any rifle chambered in 7mm-08 Remington, such as the Remington 700 and Model Seven, Tikka T3x, Savage 110 and 11, Browning X-Bolt, Ruger American, and Winchester XPR. It is designed for whitetail and mule deer and is a good match for youth hunters and anyone sensitive to recoil. A common question is whether a polymer tipped bullet is too fragile for deer, and Deer Season XP is designed specifically for deer sized game at normal hunting ranges. The 200 round case keeps your rifle fed for several seasons.
Winchester Deer Season XP X708DS is made in the USA and is new production ammunition, not reloads. Each cartridge uses a new brass case with a boxer primer, and the load is non-corrosive, so normal cleaning is all your rifle needs. The boxer-primed brass is reloadable for handloaders. This case comes in factory packaging as 10 boxes of 20 rounds for a total of 200 rounds of 7mm-08 Remington.
