1000rds - 38 Special Federal LE 158gr. +P LSWC Ammo

Federal Ammunition 158 Grain Lead Semi-Wadcutter (LSWC) Ammo Details

This classic lead semi-wadcutter (LSWC) load from Federal is a versatile choice for range practice, formal training, and personal defense with revolvers chambered in .357 Magnum or .38 Special. Aside from the lack of hollow-point cavity, these cartridges are nearly identical to the famous "FBI Load" and consist of reloadable brass casings fitted with non-corrosive Boxer primers, filled with +P powder charges, and crowned by 158 grain LSWC projectiles. The casings are also crimped midway down the body to prevent bullet setback and subsequent malfunction.

158 grains is a common heavy weight for the .38 Special caliber and combines nicely with the +P pressure to produce devastating results on target, even when coming from the short barrels typically associated with pocket wheel-guns. The completely exposed LSWC projectile does a great job of defeating heavy clothing, flattening out on impact, and creating a larger wound cavity in a threat without over-penetrating. Buying in bulk is the best idea for consistent practice since the LSWC shape also leaves ideal holes in paper targets for easy scoring and clear group interpretation.
