• Product Overview: The Buffalo Bore Heavy .38 SPL +P ammo is designed to maximize the effectiveness of your .38 Special revolver.

• Flash Suppression: Uses flash-suppressed powder to preserve shooter vision in low-light conditions, offering a critical tactical advantage.

• Bullet Design: Item 20B/20 features a 125gr Low Velocity Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) that expands at impact velocities as low as 800 fps—ideal for short-barreled revolvers.

• Bullet Options: Whether you prefer a soft semi-wadcutter lead bullet or a soft Jacketed Hollow Cavity (JHC), these loads deliver enhanced performance.

• Tactical Reload Advantage:

  • Short-barreled revolvers (2–2.5 inches) have short ejectors that often fail to fully eject .357 Magnum brass.

  • .38 SPL brass is shorter and more reliably ejected, making it superior for rapid reloads under pressure.

• Real-World Velocities: Tested using actual over-the-counter revolvers—not long test barrels—to provide realistic performance data:

  • 1072 fps (319 ft-lbs) — S&W Model 60, 2-inch barrel

  • 1108 fps (341 ft-lbs) — S&W Model 66, 2.5-inch barrel

  • 1180 fps (386 ft-lbs) — Ruger SP101, 3-inch barrel

  • 1258 fps (439 ft-lbs) — S&W Mountain Gun, 4-inch barrel

• Ballistic Performance: These .38 SPL +P loads deliver low-end .357 Magnum ballistics. For older or more fragile revolvers, or recoil-sensitive shooters, Buffalo Bore recommends their Heavy Standard Pressure .38 SPL ammo for safer yet powerful performance.

• Terminal Effect: The 125gr JHP is designed to mushroom violently and penetrate approximately 12 inches in human tissue.
