Winchester Ammunition was recently awarded a contract by the Immigration, Customs and Enforcement (ICE) division of the Department of Homeland Security to supply a maximum of 200 million, 40 cal. rounds over the next five years.


Dick Hammett, president of Winchester Ammunition, says “No matter if they're protecting our block, our city or our borders, each special agent is an invaluable resource and we are committed to giving them the best products available.”


The load selected for this contract is a 135-grain, hollow point designed for the office of Field Operations of Customs and Border Protection. It will fall under the Winchester Ranger line of products.
