.38 Special Heavy 148 Grain Wadcutter ammo




Friends,

I have a small batch of the .38 Special Heavy Wadcutter ammo.

Like all the ammo sold, these are sold in 100 round increments.
I have 800 rounds.



This was produced in new Starline brass and features a 148 grain full wadcutter.

****** QUICK UPDATE****


From here forward the ammo will be shipping in 50 round traditional boxes, rather than the 100 round Berry's and MTM plastic boxes previously used. Every now and then breakage was occurring due to the extreme handling by the shippers.




For those not familiar, a little background. The short version is that the very vast majority of JHP/defense ammo will not expand out of short barreled revolvers. It also has very erratic and inconsistent penetration. For that reason many knowledgeable shooters have long carried wadcutters in their J Frames and short barreled revolvers due to the fact that they have extremely consistent performance and penetrate straight and deep.

These loads are safe for any modern firearm in proper working condition, and loads were tested in multiple J Frame Model 442s (Airweights) with 1 & 7/8ths " barrels as well as larger framed .38s.



These are pretty potent for wadcutters, and I tested them in Airweight 1 & 7/8ths" J frames as well as 4" and 6" guns.

Velocity is as follows:

J Frame: 820 FPS
4" K Frame: 885 FPS
6" Ruger Security 6: 950 FPS

Usually the standard factory wadcutter ammo (Remington/Winchester) is in the high 600s low 700s when fired from a 2" revolver, so this will certainly do the job and penetrate deep and straight.


Price includes shipping and insurance.

I have 8 boxes-800 rounds.



It is $100 for 100 rounds
, or $200 for 200 rounds to your door, which after S&I works out to about $40 per box of 50.

Post the amount you want followed with a PM, so I can keep track please.



I take Venmo, USPS Money order, or checks (once cleared by the bank). I do not take paypal.
I am working on a website, and should have it up soon.



* No, I don't sell them in boxes of 20. The shipping (not to mention packaging) is so costly that it makes no sense to do so .

You have to be 21 since it is handgun ammo. Will only ship to places where legal and it is your responsibility to know your local laws. No shipping to restricted states or jurisdictions. CONUS only, and I do not ship to, MA, DC, CT, CA or other locations with restrictions.



BEFORE YOU SEND A PM, READ THE FAQS PLEASE.

FAQs/Answers to FAQs

NO, for a multitude of reasons I do not disclose what powder types or amounts are used in the manufacturing of the ammunition.
NO, I am not currently producing any rifle ammunition.

Ted,
I'll take Two boxes for my LW J frames.


Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
