Winchester .22 LR Production

More than a billion rounds—that’s right, billion with a “B”—of .22 Long Rifle ammunition are made every year. One of the factories that produces a large percentage of those .22 LR cartridges is Winchester Ammunitions’ plant in Oxford, Miss. This week, we show you how Winchester makes America’s favorite cartridge. Shooting Editor Glenn Gilbert tests the Kimber Super Pro Carry .45 from the company’s custom shop. We take a look at a rifle that was obsolete before it even fully fielded—the Krag-Jorgensen—which was the U.S. military’s first smokeless powder smallbore rifle.
