The Buffalo Bore Heavy Strictly Business 38 Special +P ammunition delivers maximum stopping power from snub-nose revolvers and compact carry guns. This premium defensive round features a 125-grain jacketed hollow point bullet engineered for reliable expansion and deep penetration in real-world scenarios.
What Makes This Different
Buffalo Bore's Heavy Strictly Business line pushes 38 Special +P performance beyond standard factory loads through careful powder selection and quality control. The 125-grain JHP bullet achieves velocities typically reserved for larger calibers while maintaining manageable recoil in lightweight revolvers. Each cartridge undergoes rigorous testing to ensure consistent ballistic performance across temperature extremes and storage conditions.
Key Features
- 125-grain jacketed hollow point bullet optimized for expansion
- +P pressure rating for enhanced velocity and energy transfer
- Flash-suppressed powder reduces muzzle flash in low-light conditions
- Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion and aid smooth extraction
- Compatible with all 38 Special and 357 Magnum revolvers
- Low-flash propellant preserves night vision capabilities
- Consistent 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards from 4-inch barrels
This ammunition excels in personal defense situations where reliable expansion and adequate penetration are critical. The 125-grain bullet weight provides optimal performance from 2-inch snub-nose barrels while delivering controlled expansion through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers. Law enforcement agencies and concealed carry permit holders rely on this load's consistent terminal ballistics across varying barrel lengths and environmental conditions.
