winchester sxz-- anybody tried it?

Available only at Bass Pro.
Training or Personal Protection with same velocity/energy.
Didn't find any info on Winchester's site. Minimal on BP's.
Picked up a 100 45acp for the next range trip. What the heck.
Just wondering if anyone has tried it.

I got some in .40 for my FNP-40 a couple of weeks ago. I can't tell much difference in it and the regular "White Box" ammo. The black Lubalox, or whatever it is, coating does get your hands kind of dirty. I got some of both the practice and the personal protection types. Haven't shot the personal protection yet. It would be interesting to see how the hollow points expand compared to other stuff. Seems like fairly inexpensive practice ammo at least.

I saw some expansion tests with the personal protection, it performed very poorly.

If going with winchester, go with Ranger Talons.
