Description

Winchester 760 1lb

Since the late 1800s, Winchester Smokeless Powders have been available. Customers who have fired Winchester factory-loaded ammunition know the grade of propellant they are getting from the first shot. Bring that quality to your reloading bench with the Winchester powder family.

The ball powder of Winchester 760 is intended to double the 30-06 ball load ballism of the Springfield plant. For 22-250 Remington, 300 Winchester Magnum and 300 WSM, ideal flow characteristics that allow 760 to gain advantage over other drives with similar burn rates.
