Winchester X35W Power-Point ammunition in 35 Whelen delivers controlled expansion and deep penetration for medium to large game hunting. This 200-grain soft point cartridge combines proven ballistic performance with consistent accuracy across hunting distances.
What Makes This Different
The Power-Point design features a notched jacket that promotes controlled expansion while maintaining weight retention for maximum energy transfer. Unlike standard cup-and-core bullets, the Power-Point's engineered construction delivers consistent mushrooming at velocities ranging from 2400 to 1800 fps. The 35 Whelen cartridge provides 30-06 case capacity with .358 caliber bullet diameter, generating approximately 2910 fps muzzle velocity and 3760 ft-lbs of energy with this 200-grain load.
