You don’t want regular old 38 Special ammunition. You want 38 Special +P ammunition, which is loaded to a higher chamber pressure than the conventional non-plus-p stuff. It has higher striking energy, which translates to improved odds of neutralizing the threat faster!
But you’ve got to take the good with the bad when you choose overpressure ammo. That means accepting a somewhat more recoil, plus faster wear and tear on the barrel. Above all else, it means exclusively firing a 38 Special firearm that can take all that extra pressure. (Any 357 Magnum revolver or lever gun can handle this ammo just fine, though.)
This round’s bullet is a 158 grain semi-jacketed hollow point. If fired from a 4” vented test barrel (which simulates the effect of a cylinder gap), it will hit a close-range target with over 270 ft lbs of kinetic energy – adequate for personal protection. If it hits soft tissue, the SJHP’s notched partial jacket and soft lead core’s nose cavity will spring in to action to deliver broad terminal expansion. Nonmagnetic; good for hunting yote in addition to personal protection.
Magtech loads these rounds with quality reloadable brass shells and noncorrosive small pistol primers (1-1/2). Made in Brazil!
