Winchester® Razorback XT™ Hog Ammo Line Expands

Don’t blink. That’s enough time for North America’s wild hog population to grow larger. The explosion of wild hog numbers from California’s coast to the Florida swamps means hunters need tough ammo for tough boars.

The Razorback XT™ line from Winchester® Ammunition is the perfect medicine for the wild hog epidemic. Winchester Razorback XT is the world’s first line of ammunition specifically designed for wild hog hunting and in 2013, Winchester will give hog hunters more options for bringing home the bacon. This year, the Razorback XT line adds a hard-hitting .44 Rem Mag offering for handgun hunters, and shotgun hunters also will get shells designed specifically for harvesting hogs with both a Razorback XT buckshot and slug load.

“Wild hog populations continue to grow and so does the demand for ammunition that can bring down big boars quickly and effectively,” said Brett Flaugher, Winchester Ammunition vice president of marketing, sales and strategy. “Now we’re offering handgun and shotgun hunters Razorback XT ammunition they can count on in the variety of conditions and climates where wild hogs are hunted.”

The 225-grain .44 Rem Mag Razorback XT cartridge includes an engineered hollow point for delayed expansion on extremely tough hogs. The six position beveled profile delays expansion and strengthens the expanded segments for high weight retention and deep penetration. The 12-gauge Razorback XT buckshot load will feature eight buffered 00 pellets for hard-hitting, close range knockdown power.

The Razorback XT segmenting rifled slug is designed to segment into three equal pieces upon impact for devastating trauma caused by multiple wound channels. It also features an innovative wad stabilizer for pinpoint downrange accuracy up to 125 yards.

The M-Pro 7 Gun Cleaner improves weapon performance by removing layers of fouling and embedded carbon while conditioning the bore to help prevent future build-up.

Formulated from technology with the lowest known friction coefficient, MPro 7 Gun Oil LPX provides unparalleled protection against wear, humidity and moisture (including salt water) and leaves a long-lasting film that repels dust and dirt. With one pass, the M-Pro 7 BoreSnake loosens large particles, scrubs out the remaining residue with a bronze brush, then swabs it all spotless with a cleaning area 160 times larger than a standard patch. The BoreSnake is completely washable and reusable.

Each kit is packaged in a compact, hard-sided storage case. The M-Pro 7 Gun Cleaner and Gun Oil LPX included in the kit are odorless, nontoxic, non-flammable and biodegradable, making the liquids safe to travel with and compliant with state and federal regulations. The MPro 7 3-Gun Cleaning Kit is available for an MSRP of $99.99. For more information about M-Pro 7 visit mpro7.com or call 800-937-4677
