Winchester's recalling 3 lots of 150 grain ballistic silvertips in 7mm mag. They say they have the wrong propellant in them; might want to check out winchesters site (under news/articles) and make sure you don't have the bad lot before someone gets blown up! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
 
It's the only one I found on the Winchester site. There are some rimfire ammo recalls dated this summer.
