The Winchester X32WS2 Power-Point delivers proven terminal performance for 32 Winchester Special rifles with 170-grain soft point bullets designed for medium game hunting. This traditional cartridge maintains Winchester's reputation for consistent accuracy and reliable expansion across hunting distances.
What Makes This Different
Power-Point technology features a notched jacket that initiates controlled expansion upon impact, creating larger wound channels than standard full metal jacket rounds. The 170-grain bullet weight provides optimal sectional density for the 32 Winchester Special cartridge, delivering deeper penetration than lighter alternatives. Factory-loaded rounds ensure consistent powder charges and seating depths that handloaders struggle to replicate reliably.
Key Features
- 170-grain soft point bullet optimized for medium game hunting
- Power-Point notched jacket design for controlled expansion
- Brass cases suitable for reloading applications
- Non-corrosive Boxer primers for reliable ignition
- Factory quality control ensures consistent velocities
- Compatible with all 32 Winchester Special chambered rifles

Field testing demonstrates muzzle velocities around 2,250 feet per second from 24-inch barrels, generating approximately 1,910 foot-pounds of energy. The 170-grain bullet maintains sufficient energy for deer-sized game out to 150 yards, making it suitable for eastern woodlands hunting where shots rarely exceed that distance. Soft point construction provides reliable expansion in both thin-skinned and heavier game animals.
