I bought a box of WWB. It was $20 a box/50 at Wallies and says "winClean" on it as well as "95 Gr. BEB". What is this stuff: Target or SD? The nose is sort of flat like a semi-wadcutter with no copper on it on the flat part. It shot just fine after I got the recoil spring pointed in the right direction.

It's just plinking/shooting ammo. Could carry it if you want for SD; there are plenty of people that carry an FMJ loading (or in this case, Trunculated Full Metal Jacket- TFMJ).

The difference between this FMJ and others is the enclosed base of the bullet, most other jacketed bullets the base is open; the hot gas from the burnt powder send some of this lead into the air.

i use these for target i get them at store called meijer in mi. pay 16.99 a box . bought a couple boxes at 12 .99 on clearance. i think they are an all around cleaner load to shoot. seems to be less powder crud when cleaning the gun .

Definite plinking ammo.

This is the only ammo that will misfire in my LCP. The Wincleans live up tho their reputation of inconsistent primers. I get about 10% light primer strikes on these. No other ammo has this issue in my LCP. (lead-less primers are for the birds!)

My LCP LOVES this load, go figure. I got 1.5" groups at 7 yards with it, outshot Cor-Bon and Golden Saber bullets. That flat me-plat and exposed lead core may be just the ticket for finicky LCP's that don't like JHP ammo, as it will penetrate pretty deeply and you MIGHT get a bit of expansion out of it also. I'd take it over ball ammo anytime if my gun liked it and won't feed anything else.

This ammo has also been problematic with some Glocks as well.
