The Speer 4013 delivers proven jacketed hollow point performance for .38 Special applications where reliable expansion and penetration matter most. This 125-grain load combines Speer's traditional bullet construction with consistent powder charges for dependable accuracy shot after shot.
What Makes This Different
Speer's 4013 jacketed hollow point features a controlled expansion cavity designed specifically for the .38 Special's velocity range. Unlike generic hollow points that may over-expand or fail to open at lower velocities, this bullet maintains structural integrity while delivering consistent expansion. The 125-grain weight provides an optimal balance between velocity and retained energy for effective terminal performance.
Key Features
- 125-grain jacketed hollow point bullet optimized for .38 Special velocities
- Controlled expansion cavity engineered for consistent terminal performance
- Clean-burning powder reduces fouling and maintains accuracy
- Boxer-primed brass cases suitable for reloading
- Factory-loaded to SAAMI specifications for reliable function
- 100 rounds per box packaging for range training or duty use
- Compatible with all standard .38 Special firearms
This ammunition performs reliably across various barrel lengths commonly found in .38 Special revolvers and carbines. The 125-grain bullet weight generates sufficient velocity from 2-inch snub-nose barrels while avoiding excessive pressure in longer barrels. Law enforcement agencies have utilized similar Speer hollow point designs for decades due to their predictable expansion characteristics and barrier performance.
