NOTE: If ammunition of the above Symbols 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.
DO NOT USE WINCHESTER® 9MM LUGER 115 FMJ / JHP OF THE ABOVE SYMBOLS THAT HAS ANY OF THE ABOVE LOT NUMBERS. The ammunition Lot Number is stamped on the cartons of the Symbols involved as indicated here:
Q4172
RED9
USA9JHP
USA9MMVP Bulk Pack
USA9MMVP Oriented Bulk Pack
USA9W Oriented Bulk Pack
WW9B Five 100-Round Oriented Bulk Packs
To determine if your ammunition is subject to this notice, review the Symbol and Lot Number. If it is any of the above Symbols and Lot Numbers, immediately discontinue use and contact Winchester toll-free at 844-653-8358 for free UPS pick-up of the recalled ammunition. Upon receipt of your recalled ammunition, Winchester will ship replacement ammunition directly to you or issue you a reimbursement check.
This notice applies only to the above 9mm Luger 115 FMJ and JHP Symbols with the above Lot Numbers. Other Symbols or Lot Numbers are not subject to this recall.

I wonder how long it will take Winchester to get replacement ammo to those affected? Or will the issue checks like mentioned?
Just got this from a dealer here. Might be old news, IDK

In the P-F basket of deplorables.
Fortunately, the last time I bought any Winchester was when Walmart had it for 9 cents/rd in November 2019.
Shoulda bought more. A lot more.
