The Magtech 38E delivers consistent performance for range training and practice sessions with its 158-grain semi-jacketed hollow point design. This ammunition provides reliable feeding and extraction in revolvers while offering the terminal performance characteristics needed for defensive training scenarios.
What Makes This Different
The semi-jacketed hollow point construction combines the feeding reliability of a jacketed bullet with controlled expansion capabilities. Unlike full metal jacket rounds that simply punch through targets, the SJHP design allows shooters to practice with ammunition that mimics defensive load ballistics. The 158-grain weight matches traditional police loads, providing authentic recoil and point of impact for training purposes.
Key Features
- 158-grain semi-jacketed hollow point bullet for realistic training
- Consistent powder charges ensure uniform velocity and accuracy
- Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading
- Non-corrosive primers prevent barrel and chamber damage

Range sessions benefit from the consistent ballistics this ammunition provides across multiple firing sessions. The semi-jacketed construction reduces lead fouling compared to cast bullets while maintaining cost-effectiveness for high-volume training. Competition shooters appreciate the predictable point of impact, while defensive training courses rely on the realistic recoil impulse that matches duty ammunition characteristics.
