Looks to be the Win answer to the CCI Stinger.
Should be a good snake killer and varmint round.

I just shot up a box I found in a gun shop, it was called Expeditor, but it had a 29 grain bullet.  It had a silver extended case like the stinger, and it shot very poorly in everything i tried it in.  The ammo looked like it was about 10 years old, but I don't know for sure.

Expeditors have been made before, but not Ultra High Velocity, which have the same MV of 1640fps as the Stinger.

they should not have stopped making it in the first place..
The original loading was one of the more accurate of the
first hyper-velocity rounds. Many a crow fell to it in our
Pecan Orchard.

What is old is what is new, I remember distinctly shooting Winchester Expediter 22 shells 30 years ago, at least those were horribly inaccurate.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

I would like to find several hundred rounds of the old stuff, they were deadly accurate in my old singleshots.
