38 Special Ammo

This .38 Special ammunition from PMC fires full metal jacket bullets that comply with many indoor range rules (unlike lead round nose loads) and produce relatively minimal fouling in the barrel of your revolver. They are a cost-effective and accurate choice for your target shooting activities.

Each round in this bulk priced case of 1,000 (perfect for high volume shooters) fires a medium weight 132 grain FMJ at a muzzle velocity of 917 feet per second. This is a medium power load producing average recoil. As with most .38 Special ammo, these cartridges can be fired in .357 Magnum revolvers as a cost-effective, lower-recoiling alternative to the magnum cartridge.

This American-made 38 Special ammunition by Ammo Inc. is just the ticket for all your training, target shooting, and lazy Saturday afternoon backyard plinking needs. But it’s of especial value if you plan on spending a significant amount of your life at an indoor range, because it is loaded with total metal jacket projectiles.

The conventional full metal jacket’s name isn’t entirely accurate. Its jacket doesn’t fully encompass its core, which is why it allows hot ignition to aerosolize lead. The TMJ (aka total metal case) features a jacket that totally envelops its lead core, so it won’t emit lead gas while it speeds through the barrel. Not only does a TMJ avoid fogging up an indoor range with toxic lead – it also preserves a firearm’s accuracy by keeping its rifling substantially cleaner.

This ammo’s propellant features its Arizonan manufacturer’s Hyperclean Technology. It stimulates fuller combustion of the propellant during ignition, which has the benefit of even further reducing barrel fouling. The TMJ’s flat nose profile is safe for lever-action firearms, and its moderate muzzle velocity won’t produce sharp recoil. You also get reloadable brass cases when you fire this nonmagnetic ammo – very handy!

The 38 Special has been around since the late 1800's and remains a great range and self defense round to this day. Used by civilians, militaries, and law enforcement agencies all over the world, this round has more than shown its reliability and effectiveness.

This 38 Special cartridge is from Remington’s UMC division. They specialize in making only a select few types of popular rounds, so they’re able to sell in the quantities that allow them to keep their customers’ prices low. This round has got the metal case projectile for which UMC is so well-known -- it’s functionally no different from a full metal jacket, and accordingly prevents bore fouling while keeping feeding smooth in a semi-automatic weapon.

This round has got Remington’s Kleanbore primer. Your pistol’s bore will be much better off in the long run for having been exposed to so clean burning a primer, and that it’s non-corrosive means you can confidently set this case of ammo aside for a very long time.

Regardless, a metal case bullet is perfect for the range owing to its affordability, ability to stave off bore leading, and tendency to plow through most types of targets -- even the more obstinate ones used for plinking.

UMC ammo features Remignton’s own Kleanbore primer. It burns hot to do a good job of igniting as much of the propellant simultaneously as it’s able, and also burns clean to keep your pistol’s bore in better shape before you can get around to cleaning it.

Winchester ammo is made in Oxford, Mississippi using reloadable brass cases and non-corrosive primers. These rounds are loaded to +P pressures and should only be used in firearms capable of handling +P ammo.

These lightweight +P loads are a great concealed carry choice for shooters who keep a good .38 Special or .357 Magnum revolver by their side. Winchester crafts the rounds using premium brass casings that can be processed and reloaded at the bench after being fired. Each case bears a non-caustic Boxer primer and clean-burning powder that won't mar your wheelgun with corrosive salts. The casing is crimped to the ribbed cannelure of JHP (jacketed hollow point) bullet which keeps it secure under recoil so that accuracy and dependable function aren't affected.

The JHP weighs in at 125 grains which is light for the .38 Special and flies with stellar speed thanks to the +P pressure charge behind it. This allows the JHP projectile, which has a rather large exposed portion like an SJHP, to expand reliably upon impact. While it travels into a threat target, the bullet's expansion will help it create a larger wound cavity by allowing its energy to be transferred outwards into vital areas. This not only produces a quicker end to a violent event but helps to prevent lethal over-penetration.

Its potent propellant charge may give this cartridge snappier recoil, but it also gives its bullet a faster muzzle velocity. At close range your revolver will dump over 250 ft lbs of energy into its target, which falls within the acceptable threshold for defensive shooting. The jacketed hollow point’s soft lead core deforms easily when its nose cavity fills with pressurized soft tissue. Its copper-alloy jacket features skives that promote wider expansion following relatively low-velocity impact – the driving force behind the Punch JHP’s reliable terminal ballistics!

Punch label ammo is specifically designed for civilian use. It doesn’t meet the criteria for barrier penetration set forth by the FBI test protocol, although it handles heavily clothed threats with all due efficacy. Federal’s brass cases deliver even after they have been reloaded a few times, and their sealed Boxer primers offer added assurance that you’ll be able to defend yourself even after your self-defense loads have been exposed to moisture.

Hornady didn’t load this 38 Special self-defense cartridge with just any old jacketed hollow point. That’s the eXtreme Terminal Performance – an unconventionally capitalized JHP that possesses the jacket concentricity and core uniformity requisite for pinpoint accuracy.

The XTP doesn’t merely seek out its target. It also delivers deleterious terminal ballistics inside of it thanks to its drawn gilding metal jacket. The jacket becomes thinner the closer it gets to the XTP’s rim, and the notches surrounding that rim strategically weaken the bullet even further. Even at lower velocities, the XTP remains remarkably effective.

The XTP’s jacket features the cannelure it needs to avoid setback in a revolver’s cylinder or lever-action rifle’s magazine, and also covers the nose cavity’s rim to help avert a poorly timed feeding jam. Hornady builds their American Gunner rounds with more than just high-quality bullets. These cartridges include the primo reloadable brass cases, Boxer primers and clean-burning powder that assure dependably functionality in all 357 Mag/38 Spl firearms.
