The powder used is designed for minimal muzzle flash and the primers are triple-inspected during the manufacturing process to ensure reliability.

Ballistic Gel Test

Ballistic gel test for 38 Special +P - 125 gr JHP - Remington Golden Saber- 25 Rounds

Image showing Remington .38 Special 125 Grain rounds fired into ballistic gel

Ballistics Test Summary

Ballistic gelatin testing is one way to get an idea of how a self-defense load might perform in a real world self-defense situation. So we fired five rounds of Remington 125 gr Golden Saber +P from a Kimber K6s from a distance of 10 feet into a block of synthetic ballistic gel with a barrier of four layers of fabric simulating heavy clothing. We then gathered information on the expansion and penetration characteristics of this load. That data is represented in the chart below.

How this load compares to other .38 Special loads from our tests in regards to bullet expansion and penetration can be found in the diagrams at the bottom of the page.

We also took photos of each bullet that was recovered from the gelatin, seen in the photo slider below. The high speed video shows this round impacting the ballistic gelatin at 10,000 frames per second.

Q: how much does a box of these badboys cost?

Posted On: 12/11/2021 By: paul

A: Thanks for reaching out Paul! We'll update this ammo's price tag as soon as we get more in stock.

Q: Did Remington stop production of this round or are they just running out of stock. I use these in 38, 9mm and 45 all in plus p. I am getting low on my stock.

Posted On: 3/15/2020 By: Geo

A: It appears very likely that Remington has ceased production of Golden Saber label ammunition for good. The good news is that their Ultimate Defense line of ammunition, which currently is in production, still features the classic Golden Saber BJHP projectile. You may also wish to try Remington's Golden Saber Black Belt line of ammunition, which is intended to improve upon the classic design with the addition of the Mechani-Lokt belt that combats component separation during penetration.
