Are Winchester X-Pert out of production?
« on: March 15, 2006, 06:57:28 AM »
I just thought I Would ask.  I was getting them at Wal-Mart and all of a sudden they are no longer there.  I have checked at the five stores in the Boise Idaho area and no one has them.  They have all been out since Christmas.

I checked with a manager at Wally World and he said that they were not in the wearhouse at the present time but still listed on their order sheets.

You can only hit the target if the barrel is pointed in the right direction when the bullet leaves the barrel.

I saw some at the Wally world  down the street from me within the past month, and I think a local sporting goods shop had a few boxes left last i was there, though that doesn't mean that they still make them. I'll have to do some looking and asking to see... would be a shame to stop making those.

Take it for what it's worth (cost ya nothing!) but I read on another forum site that Winchester production is down due to a factory move, and possibly hurricane problems.  Whether it's true, who knows?  I can't find Dynapoints either.
Hopefully, they'll get their production back up.

Well, Winchester the gun company has closed it's doors. Maybe their cartridge division is restructuring because of that.

Two different companies.  Olin for ammo, FN for guns.
