Underwood Ammo's offering in the .38 Special +P caliber features a 158-grain Hard Cast Semi-Wadcutter (HCSWC) bullet. This ammunition is designed for superior performance in self-defense and target shooting scenarios. The ammunition is sold in a box of 20 rounds.
Each round is constructed with nickel-plated brass cases, which enhances their durability and resistance to corrosion. This is essential for reliable feeding and ejection in various firearms. The nickel plating also helps to reduce friction, leading to smoother cycling and consistent performance.
The 158-grain HCSWC bullet is particularly effective for self-defense, as it offers a balance of penetration and impact. The semi-wadcutter design is also ideal for target shooting, as it cuts clean and easily identifiable holes in paper targets.
These rounds are loaded to a +P pressure (higher than standard .38 Special rounds), offering increased power and velocity. They are loaded to achieve a muzzle velocity of 1250 feet per second, resulting in substantial energy transfer upon impact, with an energy rating of 548 foot-pounds.
