We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Haven't tried the SXZ yet - it is supposed to be the next generation that originated with the much maligned black talon. The growth chart shows Ranger - Ranger T - Ranger SX - Ranger SXT and now SXZ.

I have carried and shot the SXT 40 cal - very good defensive load.

I saw this post earlier and it reminded me that I had seen these rounds at a Bass Pro Shops in Richmond. Looking at the Winchester and Bass Pro websites I found no ballistic info for the rounds so I sent a message to Winchester and they only took a few hours to provide the info. Although I haven't yet purchased or tried out the ammo I figured I'd post the info they provided on the 9mm, .40 cal and .45 cal rounds they make.

I use and carry the SXZ ammo both in carry and practice. No difference in performance, just a few dollars in price per box.

I agree. I find the Ranger SXT (LE packaged) 180gr to be a much better design. The new Federal HST is some nice stuff too. I picked up a box of 50 online of the 155gr for $24 or so. Fairfax Co PD (VA) is using the 165gr version.
