The SinterFire SF38110SD Special Duty ammunition delivers lead-free frangible performance specifically engineered for close-quarters training and tactical applications. This 38 Special load combines a 110-grain hollow point design with frangible construction that disintegrates upon impact with hard surfaces, reducing ricochet risk in training facilities.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional lead-core ammunition, the SF38110SD utilizes compressed copper powder construction that fragments completely when striking steel targets or barriers harder than the projectile itself. This frangible design maintains terminal ballistics on soft targets while eliminating lead exposure concerns. The hollow point configuration enhances expansion characteristics while the 110-grain weight provides optimal velocity and energy transfer in 38 Special platforms.
Key Features
- 110-grain lead-free frangible hollow point construction
- Compressed copper powder projectile eliminates lead exposure
- Disintegrates on impact with surfaces harder than the bullet
- Reduces ricochet and backstop damage in training environments
- Maintains consistent accuracy and terminal performance
- Clean-burning powder reduces fouling and maintenance
- Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading
The SF38110SD performs consistently across temperature ranges while delivering reduced barrel wear compared to traditional jacketed bullets. Training facilities benefit from decreased ventilation requirements due to the lead-free composition. The frangible design makes this ammunition particularly suitable for shoot houses, steel target competitions, and indoor ranges with restrictive backstop requirements.
