Winchester sells ammo in a rather plain looking white box that folks refer to as "white box" ammo. It's a bit lower priced but otherwise pretty much the same as the rest as far as I know tho I've never shot any of it.

What GB said, also some of the other manufacturers make generic brands also.

No crucifications around here for asking questions.  This is a good site for knowledgable information without a lot of bull.  Even those of us with gray hair and beards ask questions that we hope someone know a reasonable answer to.

I shoot the WWWB for a couple of my revolvers.  It is less expensive and shoots good enough for practice etc.  I have never seen any reason to not buy it.
