For a heavy 147GRN HP, those performed better than alot of the +P loads I've seen on here. Excellent price for a carry load, and very impressed! Great test!

Using two barrel lengths, and the resulting two velocities, provides very valuable information. A person can easily extrapolate what their 4.5-5” guns will do in the 25-50yards ranges. Great info!

These are the hollow points that I've stocked up on for shtf. I knew that they were adequate, but I didn't know they would perform as good as they did. Once I finish rotating through the premium stuff, I may just go to these and save myself a ton of money.

Very consistent I’d say it passes the test

I use the Winchester white box. Sometimes its a little dirty but can't beat the price. Thanks for the video !!

I probably have more Winchester white box 9mm, 45, 38 special than anything else. .22lr it’s not good quality, but center fire, it’s my usual choice

I've never used Winchester white box.but when I find some I will buy them.thanks for the test very impressive

I like that you get 50 round boxes very economically. Too many people buy one box of 20 and never shoot them. With these, people can buy some and actually test & train with them. Enjoyed the video, thanks!

A lot of police agencies carried this 9mm duty load for a lot of years. Out of a full sized service handgun, they'd often expand out to maybe .55 inch in street shootings, depending on clothing barriers. They were better than the .38 Specials we had prior to that, and certainly did their part if you did yours. Thanks for testing.

Been passing them up for the expensive 2O round boxes, not again. This will be my go to going forward especially for my AR-9 and PCC. Great job again Tools.

Big thank you T&T. Very informative video as always. I really like how clear the gel always is. Can't say this about all channels on YT. Wishing I had subscribed sooner now I have a ton of videos to catch up on. LoL

I inherited a couple of pistols from my dad when he passed. He had these type of JHPs that he carried in his gun. The run fine at the range but I have never seen results of them. Glad to see your video and have a better idea of what they do. I'll probably keep using them since they seem to do the job

Have a nice Easter Tools! Thank you for all you do. Good video I like the 147 best.

It's been said a time or two that you can never have enough 9mm, I have such a large assortment of different brands and grains of 9mm, this is one I actually have plenty of and it always worked well for me. All the different tests you do with the different calibers and such is valuable info for the subs that are looking to pick the best ammo for each tool and each situation, saves them time and $$. Thank You my friend, have a good one I will see you on the next one.

Brother I gotta say I never miss a video by you. Thanks for all the info you give us, it matters!

Great test with great results , if I can find some you can bet I will be getting a few boxes . Thank You

*Every time I find a cheap ammo I wanna check out I look into it and you have a video on it no more than 2 weeks old. EVERY TIME. Thanks man*

This is my favorite 9mm round and what I always carry, thanks so much for the great review and video.

Thank you sir! I picked some of this up at my RK sometime ago because that is all they had in stock and it was around $23 a box. Good to see my money wasn’t waisted. I was also able to pick up a box of the 115 grain as well. Thank you for all the work you do in making these videos. Very informational.

These are the first kind of carry ammo I ever used. I still have some on my night stand gun. Great video tools!! Really happy these performed well.

JUST STOCKED UP ON A FEW BOXES OF THIS AMMO AND WAS CURIOUS HOW THEY WOULD PERFORM SO THANK YOU SIR! GREAT VIDEO AS USUAL! 👍

Thanks for the testing. I bought some of the 147 & 115 today, plan to use the 147 in my CX-4 Storm, figure 16" barrel will give it some extra velocity. Paul Harrell consistently got good results with the 115 in his meat targets.

I am impressed. Great option. Good velocities. Thank you so much for testing them.

My Lady has had a mag full of these in her P365 for about a year now, always wondered if they'd be any good. Perfectly cleared up, another great test.

Nice!! That was a pleasant surprise! I’ve bought these before and just used them for practice. Not anymore. Lol. Other rounds perform better but like you said, they would get the job done. Another great test my friend. 🇺🇸

I stocked up on several boxes of these months ago from the company store, I found out the price for the 50 round box and couldn't pass that up. Glad to see them performing so well being a no frills round, not only will these do the trick for a low cost defensive round but you can afford to practice with them.

Great jelly test. After your test where the Sierra Sports Master was a fail and the Winchester 115 was a success. The tool I was running the Sierra in was replaced with the Winchester 115 grain. I will now be looking for this Winchester 147 grain. It did run admirably. Thanks again for the video and wishing you and yours a happy Easter.

I was pleasantly surprised with the results. As you stated, they will get the job done. Thanks for another excellent video review.

Thanks for this test. I've been thinking about picking up some of these rounds for awhile now. I like the 147gr 9's. But I haven't seen any of the Winchester 147 white box ammo for sale lately, until I stopped buy my local Academy 2 weeks ago. They had probably 100 boxes for sale for $32 a box. I ended up getting some other gun stuff and passed in the 147's. I just went back buy there this morning. They only had 2 boxes left. I grabbed one of them. Should have grabbed both, but I needed some 22 magnums too. And the best part- they gave me a 20% discount for applying for their store credit card. Ended up paying $22 for the box of 50 147gr Winchester hollow points ! All the other 9mm hollow point ammo was $30+ for boxes of 20 ! Your test made me real comfortable buying these to load into my Taurus G2C. I really appreciate all you do ! And you seen to test rounds, and guns I'm interested in. I just picked up a RIA 206-38 snub after watching your test on it. You are one of the top channels I go to. And I watch some of your videos more than once. They are very informative, and just enjoyable !

I like your videos. Testing is carefully done, lots of info and fast pace,; i hate the videos that drag out. Good job.

I've shot the other Winchester grain weights before, just not into gelly. No malfunctions. Good test.

Those rounds performed excellent. Great video tools. I've tried Winchester white box 38 special 125gr FMJ and thought they felt underpowered but I have not tried the hollow points. These budget defense videos are awesome

Nice work ! If the stars align and I see the 40 S&W version ill get em! You put the Jam in that gelly cake !

Thanks for the video. Nice to know that the Winchester white box performs so well.

I'm so glad you did the 147, I recently purchased a large bulk of these an was wondering if they had enough speed on them, they work great out of my carbine but I was apprehensive about my 3in side arm, g3c. You answered my question, thanks great video as always.

Nice to see these perform well. Definitely a great use case for SHTF. I personally use these when I can find them, for demonstrating to folks unfamiliar with firearms, the difference in feel or "push" between regular FMJ Target rounds, and JHP Defense rounds. I also use them to test new gun pickups for cycling JHPs. They're cheap enough to use as a Target ammo, in that they're not much more than the FMJs beside them in the near identical box. Cheers.

My boy back with another banger nice content still looking forward for gun collection video 💯💯

Thanks for posting this video. When the gettin' was hard to get, I picked up a couple of boxes of the 115gr JHP ($24.99). Still have one box. :)

You are an awesome salesman LOL!! Just ordered two boxes of them!! I try to watch every ammo test you do! Keep up the good work! Thanks for the videos.

I use Federal 124 grain HST's as my carry ammo in my Glock 19 and I pay dearly for them these days. After watching the Winchester White Box ammo's performance in the video I would not have any problem using them as a substitute for the HST's. Thanks for the very informative presentation, good match up with the barrel lengths. Take care and stay safe my friend!

ScubaOZ tested these through ballistic gel and denim ten years ago, and they did VERY well. The petals were sticking out at about 90 degrees from the lead, like a ranger or black talon. He got about 16 inches of penetration. Imagine that from Winchester. I was in Academy this morning buying some 124 grain V-Crowns ($22 for a 20 round box) and I saw these 147s for 34.99/box of 50.

These are what I carry in my G19 and G26. I can afford to plink and target practice with them so I know where they hit and I’m absolutely confident that they will function 100% in my guns. To me, reliability matters more than an extra 1/10th of an inch of expansion.

That's excellent performance at those velocities. Winchester appears to have figured out the low velocity expansion problems that have been so prevalent in the past with most brands.

Great Energy in your videos ! Keep em coming !

Great video as always !

Thank you for the video, I purchased a box of these and shooting out of a 4.9 inch barrel of a Beretta 92fs, it definitely gave me valuable info on what I can expect

Not to shabby buddy! great jelly testin bro ty

Great video,been a fan of your channel since the beginning

Ya know it’s funny the white box has been the poster child for good American brass for a decent price. And I’ve had good luck with their jhp’s in in 9mm and Remington makes a great budget jhp for about the same price sometimes they are 100rd boxes. I’ve always like the 115 green and white box and the go to wwb. Great stuff again Tools. Finally bought some expensive 357 mag today but couldn’t find it locally for a while too. Got 100rds of ppu jhp, 100rds of PMC jsp, and 75rds of American Gunner xtp’s. $197 delivered. That’s not terrible for that caliber. I need some more .22wmr, less than 2 boxes left. The 22 mags are a little hard to come by right now for me.

Chunky Budget Jelly! Sounds like what I get at Aldis. Do you and your cool fuzzy hat know if those bullets are available for reloaders? Impressive. Rock on and keep the fun vids coming!

Ive got a couple of boxes of these 147’s. Never really gave them much attention. I got them a few years ago for $12 a box and just bought them as safe fillers because i like heavy for caliber loads. Thanks for the video.

Great test on this round and quite detailed explanation on the video. 👍

Been stock piling these from rural king . Use these on my canik tp9 sa . U don’t want to get stung by these I promise.

Nothing wrong with cheap hollow points for the price they did good and you get a lot more bullets then the expensive hollow points but only get like 20 rounds nice video 💯💯🔥🔥🙏🏿🙏🏿

Great video as usual. Curious on the 115/147 gr with clothing barrier….might just make it a double deal or a dealbreaker. Also the the two barrel length tests are great for EDC/home defense.

Yup, they're good. Used 'em years ago in 9mm and .45 ACP. Grabbed a box when the store had one recently. I replaced the 115 gr JHPs I'd been carrying with these 147 gr. Good to know the claimed velocity was reasonably close to actual performance. I figured it was because I shot Federal Syntech 150 gr and these 147 gr JHP in the same range session and the Winchester white box rounds felt significantly hotter, yet still very controllable, while the Federal Syntech 150 gr is advertised to be a soft shooting, low velocity round for competition and range.

You just earned another subscriber, nice informative video. Greetings from Italy!

I been carrying that 147’s for a long time! Nice review like always sir!👍🏼💯🇺🇸

Thanks for this Tools, I've stocked these since I was able to get them at Walmart. Still have a bunch. I prefer the hst but I think it's a great option.

During the decade of the 1990s,the budget Winchester 147 gr. 9mm HP was the standard issue rd for the LASD(Los Angeles Co.Sheriff Dept) 8,000+ sworn personal at that time(info was from a 1998 G&A special edition magazine of top L.E.agencies in the nation and what they carry).

That’s a good to go economical self defense load. Great job on the testing as always, thanks.

Thanks tools, for some reason I didn't get notified for this video. Anyway that was some good performance by less expensive hollow points 👍👍.

Love to see you do this one again with your "real world" heavy clothing barrier.

i love the 124 because its the most common round i see and my sights dialed in for it havent tried 147 yet i havent seen them in stock

Impressive. As a fan of heavier weight 9mm bullets - especially subsonic ones - these sure fit the bill. And they're cheap enough to allow for ample practice time without breaking the bank. Great job.

Good tests on a pretty good round! These are the 1st rounds I ever shot out of my little P365. I tested them in gallon milk jugs full of water. The first one I shot expanded to a perfect mushroom, but the second one peeled the jacket off one side of the round, so the bullet looked like it had been put in a pencil sharpener. If I hadn't been the one to shoot it, I'd have thought that the second bullet had hit a glancing blow off a hard barrier. They both stopped in the third jug. The Winchester white box bullets that I have tested have did very good as to expansion, but the jackets on these and the 115s seem to peel off in unpredictable ways compared to the high dollar stuff, but for what they cost, they are very, very good. NO comparison to some rounds like the Sierra Outdoor Masters that cost three times as much and don't expand at ALL out of a 3" tube. I wouldn't feel undergunned at all with these Winchesters. I want to find me some WWB 124s and shoot them and see if they are as good as the 147s and 115s.

I really like the way you are testing the ammo. You keep it simple. Some guys test three or four different kinds of ammo out of three or four different guns and it gets to hard to follow. Yours are simple but thorough. Thanks. I still like to see something on the Buffalo Bore lead semi wadcutter hollow point 158 grain in .38 sp.

I usually carry hst 40 but I do use this same exact ammo in my mossberg mc2 they do perform well without any malfunction

For a full sized service pistol, 147 grain is the way. Thanks for the share!!

Another great video. Anyone looking for real life performances of their ammo, Tools knows what time it is.

This is the ammunition that I use as a LEO. Very good ammunition that performs consistently. They serve their purpose. I usually change out for a fresh box every 6 months. These run very well in a Glock 17.

I bought 500 of the 230 gr 45acp bullets a few weeks ago for 65.. they look good... every one I have seen in gel always expands good.. I wouldn't be afraid to carry them

Looks like anything with a 4+ inch barrel will shoot 147g with good expansion but I think anything under 4" I'll shoot 115g. Great test!

I got a few of the White Box 147 g for my CZ scorpion. I had to pay a little more than $25 a Box But they are cheaper than gold dots or HST. Now I wouldn't say they're "Just As Good" but I will say they'er good enough. I would love to see how they Perform out of a short barrel carbine

I use Winchester FMJ for target practice when I get it on sale. For everyday carry its Hornady Critical Defense & Gunner in warm weather and Critical Duty and Underwood Xtreme Penetrator in the winter.

Yes Sir, Those rounds were impressive, being heavy for caliber, I didn't expect to see results like this, Have you tested any other lighter weight rounds, 115gr and/or 124gr, I'm a 124gr round guy, Kind of a middle of the road weight, Thank you for posting, I really enjoy your tests, And I glad I joined last night, Keep up the good work my friend. 👍

I think between your and Paul Harrell's positive results with these rounds (or just WWB in general), I think this'll be my stack it deep/SHTF rounds. I have Sig 124gr V-Crowns as my usual carry ammo, but these work just fine if the zombie apocalypse happens.

This was indeed, impressive! That said, bear in mind that this was before Tool N Targets was incorporating layers of cloth over the gel blocks. This can make a huge difference in expansion performance.

Great video 👍 I usually try to stay away from Winchester, but you just changed my mind TY 😊

Great test man… I’m carrying these right now out of my 3 inch Glock 26, so I’m happy to know they will do the job! I’m only carrying these because I cannot find my ranger T series +P+ rounds anywhere that I was carrying , I had been carrying them for 4+ years so I figured I should put some new rounds in my EDC XD

Great info. Thanks!

I used to carry this round when I was transporting inmates for a corrections transport company. I never had any issues. Never had to use it on duty thankfully. But it performed well for all my qualifications tests.

I usually prefer Federal and Winchester, so I was very pleased with the results for sure! Thank you for another great gel test video!!🇺🇸👍🏻

Deep penetration and damage was pretty good too. Nice video. For me personally I like Winchester white box 115 grain for defense.

Great video Sir!

I was in Academy today and almost bought some of that Winn 147gr hp. It was $29 box. Good video. I'll see if I can find it cheaper and try it in my M&P shield

After seeing your video and jelly test. I will be purchasing some if I find any. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for doing a Gel test with the P365,

A great video! I've been using the whitebox for practice and carry for sometime now. Good to know,that economics won't stand in the way of performance.

I always avoided getting these 147 grain After seeing your video I changed my mind

Great test. I wouldn't feel a bit under armed with those. I wish we had one of those Rural Kings in my neck of the woods in NC.

Thank you for your excellent review! I have a request…could you do a gel test for the Winchester White Box 110-grain .357 Magnums out of a snub nose revolver? Maybe compare it to the same round in .38 Special, or another “budget” round like Remington UMC? Please and thank you!

Over the Years (since the 90,s) Winchester white box NEVER let me down!

Very nice ammo choice to test Tools! Looks like Winchester is upping their game for the price and performance. 🎩♠🎯🏁🏵💙💛🌻🇺🇸🍀

It is one of the most common JHP loads in the USA and Winchester has been making it for 35 years.

Great vid with no bs and no wasted time

I like the 147. Thanks for the videos.

For budget ammo you can't go wrong with Winchester white box.. It's a really good choice especially if you stockpiling ammo... I Ike the WWB 124gr in 9mm but would not hesitate to get the 147gr. That goes for FMJ or JHP... I've honestly never had any issues with WWB ammo... Good video Tools!

Ammo worked really good it surprised me I didnt think the 365 would of did that good on penetration and expansion Stay Safe and God Bless 🙏🙏

New subscriber here. Great video! I keep a nice stash of wwb 9mm jhp. I prefer the 115 grain tho. Great backup or stockpiling ammo.. or if you are on a budget or can’t find a more premium option.. wwb will work just fine.
