Winchester Ammo XBP10W Super X Black Powder Load 2.87" 25ea

The Winchester Super X Black Powder Load is a 2.87" shotshell cartridge designed for shooters who work with traditional black powder firearms. As part of Winchester's Super-X line—a name synonymous with reliability in ammunition manufacturing since 1922—this load delivers the consistent performance you need whether you're hunting with a muzzleloader, patterning a historic shotgun, or running blackpowder competition stages. Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you enough ammunition for a solid shooting session or hunt.

Black powder loads demand different ballistics than modern smokeless ammunition, and Winchester's formulation accounts for the unique burn characteristics and velocity requirements of blackpowder firearms. The 2.87" case length fits standard 12-gauge chambers and delivers repeatable results shot to shot—a hallmark of the Super-X name that shooters have trusted across generations.

If you reload blackpowder shells, hunt with muzzleloaders, or shoot vintage or replica firearms, having factory ammunition on hand provides a reference point for performance and a reliable fallback when you need it. Winchester's long manufacturing heritage means you're getting ammunition built to exacting standards, not a corner-cut commodity round.
