Oliver F. Winchester is "The American Legend" when it comes to the shooting sports industry. 2010 marks the 200th anniversary of his birthday. To pay tribute, Winchester is producing a limited edition collector's series of commemorative ammunition in 22 Long Rifle.

"We should all appreciate the path that Oliver Winchester created for not only our company but the shooting sports industry," said #### Hammett, president of Winchester Ammunition. "Oliver Winchester was a pioneer and he left a legacy that we are proud to uphold. Without a doubt he's one of the most famous names in the shooting sports industry and it's only fitting that we pay tribute to his success during the year of his 200th birthday."

Loaded with a 40 Grain Plated Lead Round Nose bullet, this design delivers maximum energy on target. Each piece of nickel plated brass features "OFW" on the head stamp. All are packaged in a collectable, vintage package complete with a biography of Oliver Winchester, the man that helped "Win the West".
