One year after Browning Ammunition launched its BXR Deer rifle loads, it has expanded the line to include more caliber options—6.5 Creedmoor (129 grain), 7 mm-08 (144 grain), 7 mm Rem. Mag. (144 grain) and .270 WSM (134 grain).

Each round features a nickel-plated shellcase and bullet jacket along with Browning Ammunition’s trademarked Rapid Expansion Matrix Tip, which is designed to allow for high-down-range velocity and energy retention while initiating rapid expansion and delivering maximum knockdown power on large game such as whitetail, blacktail, mule deer and antelope.

“Deer hunting is the most popular hunting pursuit in America and these new offerings will open the door for more hunters to experience the outstanding performance of BXR,” said Ben Frank, Browning Ammunition brand manager. For more, visit BrowningAmmo.com.
