Description

The Winchester Super X Cowboy Action 38 Special ammunition delivers consistent performance for competitive shooting and historical firearms enthusiasts. This 158-grain lead flat nose cartridge provides the authentic feel and reduced velocities required for cowboy action shooting competitions while maintaining Winchester's reputation for reliability.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard 38 Special loads that prioritize maximum velocity, Winchester's Cowboy Action formula reduces powder charges to produce lower recoil and muzzle blast. The 158-grain lead flat nose bullet design replicates traditional frontier cartridges while meeting modern SASS competition requirements. Velocities typically run 200-300 fps slower than standard loads, creating a more manageable shooting experience in period-correct revolvers.

Key Features

158-grain lead flat nose bullet for authentic cowboy action performance

SASS-compliant ammunition meets competition requirements
Non-plated lead bullets reduce barrel leading compared to harder alloys

Cowboy action shooters benefit from the consistent velocities that help maintain sight picture between targets. The lead flat nose design transfers energy effectively on steel targets while producing the distinctive ring competitors expect. Range officers and fellow shooters appreciate the reduced noise signature compared to full-power defensive loads. Historical firearm collectors find these cartridges ideal for exercising vintage Colt Single Action Army revolvers and similar period pieces without excessive wear.
