PPU PPH38SW 38 S&W 145gr Lead Round Nose Ammunition 50rd Box

The PPU PPH38SW delivers consistent performance for vintage revolvers chambered in 38 S&W, featuring precision-manufactured 145-grain lead round nose bullets. This Serbian-made ammunition provides reliable ignition and accuracy for collectors and shooters using classic firearms that require this specific cartridge.

What Makes This Different

Prvi Partizan produces this ammunition to original 38 S&W specifications, ensuring proper chamber fit and safe pressures for antique and vintage revolvers. Unlike modern high-pressure cartridges, the 38 S&W operates at lower velocities that preserve older firearm mechanisms. The lead round nose projectile design matches historical specifications while providing consistent ballistic performance.

Key Features

• 145-grain lead round nose bullet for optimal performance in vintage revolvers
• Non-corrosive Boxer primers ensure reliable ignition and easy case preparation
• Reloadable brass cases manufactured to SAAMI specifications
• Low-pressure loading safe for antique firearms and top-break revolvers
• 50 rounds per box with 20 boxes per case for bulk purchasing
• Consistent powder charges provide uniform velocity and accuracy
• Quality control testing ensures dimensional consistency

This ammunition performs reliably in Smith & Wesson top-break revolvers, Webley revolvers, and other firearms chambered specifically for 38 S&W. The moderate velocity makes it suitable for target shooting and informal plinking while maintaining the authentic ballistics that vintage firearm owners require. The lead projectile engages rifling effectively without excessive barrel leading when used at appropriate firing rates.
