Best Uses

Keep Winchester PDX1 22 WMR in your 22 Magnum defense gun, and shoot enough to confirm it fires and extracts every time. A 50-round box gives you a full load and range time. The bonded bullet is built to hold together and keep weight. Practice at close range with a focus on placement. Rotate carry rounds on a schedule and keep them dry. Pair it with lower-cost FMJ for extra practice, but always confirm function with this load. Check local laws on carry and hollow points.

FAQ

What is Winchester PDX1?
PDX1 is Winchester’s Defender line for personal defense. This 22 WMR version uses a 40-grain bonded jacketed hollow point.

What does a bonded bullet do?
The jacket is fused to the core, which helps the bullet stay together and keep its weight as it expands.

Is 22 WMR good for self defense?
It is lighter than common centerfire defense rounds, but it is easy to shoot. If you carry one, pick a defense load and train until your hits are steady.

Can you shoot 22LR in a 22 WMR gun?
No, not safely in a standard 22 WMR chamber. The .22 LR case is smaller and can split. Use only the ammo marked on your barrel, unless your revolver has a separate .22 LR cylinder.
