This is the ammo you load in your 38 Special revolver when you want it to be useful during a fight. It’s also a good lower recoil alternative for a 357 Magnum revolver, and with its flat nose profile should prove remarkably handy for any lever-action rifle capable of chambering it!

The round has the 38 Special’s classic weight 158 grain bullet. When fired out of a 5.9” barrel it will achieve a muzzle velocity of 968 fps. (A snubnose will give it an accordingly slower muzzle velocity, while a rifle will boost it.) Even at 50 yards this bullet is capable of transferring about 250 ft lbs of energy – which isn’t overwhelming, but by all means effective for self-defense with the proper aim (or a few follow-up shots for good measure).

This round’s jacketed hollow point bullet is the one to rely on for self-defense. Its copper jacket hardens the bullet for more reliable penetration, and the symmetrical notches radiating from its nose cavity promote highly uniform terminal expansion within soft tissue.

GECO belongs to RUAG, a Swiss company that makes everything from hand grenades to spaceship parts. GECO’s brass cases, primers, propellant, and loading techniques are all right in line with the rest of the world’s leading ammo manufacturers.
