Buffalo Bore 38 Special +P 110gr Barnes TAC-XP Lead Free Ammo 20rd

The Buffalo Bore 20F20 Buffalo-Barnes Strictly Business delivers maximum stopping power in a lead-free 38 Special +P configuration designed for serious defensive applications. This premium ammunition combines Buffalo Bore's high-pressure loading expertise with Barnes' proven TAC-XP bullet technology to create rounds that expand reliably while penetrating deeply through barriers.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard 38 Special loads that often struggle with adequate penetration, this +P configuration pushes the 110-grain Barnes TAC-XP bullet to velocities approaching 1,100 fps from a 4-inch barrel. The all-copper construction eliminates lead exposure concerns while maintaining 99% weight retention through expansion. Standard lead bullets fragment and lose mass, but the TAC-XP design creates controlled expansion with a large wound channel while retaining penetration capability through heavy clothing, wallboard, and automotive glass.

Key Features

• 110-grain Barnes TAC-XP all-copper hollow point bullet for maximum expansion
• +P pressure loading generates approximately 1,100 fps muzzle velocity
• Lead-free construction meets environmental regulations and reduces health risks
• Four pre-scored petals create reliable expansion down to 1,000 fps
• Nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and enhance feeding reliability
• Compatible with all 38 Special and 357 Magnum revolvers rated for +P pressures
• 20 rounds per box, 12 boxes per case for bulk purchasing

Field testing demonstrates consistent expansion in ballistic gelatin with penetration depths between 12-14 inches, meeting FBI protocol standards for defensive ammunition. The TAC-XP bullet maintains structural integrity when fired through intermediate barriers like heavy denim, plywood, and automotive glass. Law enforcement agencies have adopted this loading for backup guns and off-duty carry where reliable expansion from short-barreled revolvers is critical.
