Is Federal better than Winchester White Box

Is the red federal box ammo better than Win Whittey? The price seems to be 15 for Federal and 11 for Whittey at local places. I am thinking about stocking up before Sept. price hike.

I've always found AE to be a little bit dirtier than WWB...but that's just me

I've also felt the red box is 'dirtier' ammo, (moreso than WWB).

For a $3 or $4 different in each box, I'd definitely buy what is cheapest as both brands seems to always go "boom"

Think about it, that's about 30% more per box! That will really add up. For the same price, would you rather have 6 boxes of quality plinking ammo, or 9 boxes of quality plinking ammo

Why didn't you post that picture when you first found it?
