.38 Special ammunition delivers a balanced blend of mild recoil and consistent accuracy, propelling 125- to 158-grain bullets at 750–900 fps for 150–225 ft-lbs of energy—perfect for both precision target work and self-defense. Full metal jacket (FMJ) loads offer reliable feeding and economical practice, while jacketed hollow point (JHP) rounds expand predictably for close-range stopping power. Compatible with classic revolvers like the Smith & Wesson Model 10, Ruger Security-Six and Colt Detective Special, these cartridges produce tight groups and manageable muzzle blast.
