250 Rounds of 110gr JHP .38 Spl +P Ammo by Hornady

The .38 Special was designed in 1898 by Smith and Wesson. It’s sometimes referred to by other designations such as the 9x29.5mmR or 9.1x29mmR. It’s always been popular among many gun owners thanks to its manageable recoil and accuracy, and it certainly has enjoyed some extensive use. For example, between the 1920s and 1990s it was the standard issue weapon for law enforcement agencies across the country. Today it’s the best-selling revolver cartridge on the market.

Many gun owners use their .38 Specials for self-defense purposes. If you do, make sure you keep your gun loaded with good quality ammunition. Take a look at these rounds manufactured by Hornady. They weigh in at 110 grain which makes them quite lightweight for the cartridge size. Being lighter weight enables them to travel towards targets at higher speeds and also helps keep felt recoil manageable. These rounds are topped with Hornady’s FTX, Flex Tip eXpanding, bullet. The FTX has a polymer insert to aid in expansion and keep things like layers of clothing from interfering with the bullet’s ability to expand and penetrate. This ammunition is meant for self-defense use.

When you order this box of ammunition from Hornady you get 250 defense rounds.
