Twenty rounds per box, loaded ten to a box—practical packaging for the working hunter.
If you're running a 6.8 Western rifle and want off-the-shelf ammo you can count on for whitetail, mule deer, or similar game, Winchester's factory ammunition removes the guesswork. It's the kind of round you can grab, load into the magazine, and trust to do the job when the moment matters.
