More Details About Our 500 Rounds of 125gr JHP .38 Spl +P Ammo by Winchester USA
We’re not disparaging semi-automatic firearms – but we understand why someone would rather carry a more reliable wheel gun for self-defense. Maybe that includes you. Maybe you keep a revolver chambered for 38 Special in your waistband. That’s why you should order the whole case of Winchester USA ammo!
This is a +P cartridge. That means it’s loaded to generate higher than standard chamber pressure, which has three important implications for performance:
1. This ammo can destroy a 38 Special firearm that isn’t rated for +P;
2. This ammo will kick relatively harder when fired; and
3. This ammo will hit its target harder than standard a 38 Special round.
The bullet itself is a lightweight 125 grain jacketed hollow point. The jacket has a cannelure to prevent bullet setback while the cartridge is sitting in the cylinder. It also helps to prevent the bullet from fragmenting and losing momentum while it’s burrowing through soft tissue. The JHP’s large lead hollow point nose cavity delivers the terminal expansion that inflicts more grievous damage to soft tissues.
Winchester’s brass-cased and reloadable 38 Spl +P ammo achieves a high enough muzzle velocity to dump about 245 ft lbs of kinetic energy into a five-yard target, which is adequate for self-defense. Works great in all 357 Mag firearms, too!
