Additionally, there are two symbols not under the Winchester brand that are affected - Herter’s 9mm
Luger 115 grain Full Metal Jacket in a 50-round box and a Browning 9mm Luger 115 grain Full Metal
Jacket in a 50-round box.
Herter’s Symbol: HRT9A
Lot Numbers: SC13LD44, SC13LD45, SD10LD44, SD10LD45
Browning Symbol: B191800092
Lot Numbers: SC13LD20, SD10LD20
Note: If ammunition was purchased before March 25, 2021, it is NOT subject to the recall.
Winchester has determined the above lots of 9mm Luger 115 FMJ and JHP ammunition may contain
propellant that does not properly ignite and burn when the cartridge is fired. Ammunition containing
propellant that does not properly ignite and burn may result in a bullet remaining in the barrel (i.e., a
bullet-in-bore obstruction). Firing a subsequent bullet into the bore obstruction could cause firearm
damage, rendering the firearm inoperable and subjecting the shooter and bystanders to a risk of serious
personal injury.
We have identified all suspect lot numbers and are implementing a nation-wide recall.
This recall has been posted on the Winchester and Browning Ammunition websites and we have
acquired ad space in upcoming print and electronic media publications.
We request that you audit any material you have in-stock, looking for the subject Symbols and Lot
Numbers. If you have any of these Symbols and Lot Numbers, please isolate the material at your facility
and contact your Winchester Sales Representative or call our hotline below for further instruction.
We also request that you post the attached recall notices in your store and on your website to ensure
these notices reach as many of your customers as possible.
Please review the recall notice on the Winchester website (www.winchester.com). Any questions may
be directed to our hotline at 1-844-653-8358 or through our product support link
