The Hornady Custom 38 Special 158 Grain XTP JHP is a proven defensive and target round built on the reputation of one of ammunition's most respected manufacturers. This 38 Special load pairs Hornady's XTP (eXtreme Terminal Performance) hollow-point bullet with carefully selected brass, powder, and primers to deliver consistent performance across the board. Whether you're loading up for revolver practice, personal defense, or sport shooting, this is ammunition engineered for reliability and terminal effectiveness.
Hornady manufactures the majority of the brass used in its Custom line, controlling every step to ensure proper hardness, consistent dimensions, reliable feeding, and resistance to corrosion. The powder charge is precisely matched to the 158-grain XTP bullet and caliber to optimize pressure, velocity, and lot-to-lot consistency—critical factors when you're counting on your ammunition to perform the same way every single time. Primers are selected to reliably ignite each powder charge without fail.
The XTP bullet is purpose-built for controlled expansion and deep penetration, making it effective for both target shooting and defensive applications. Each box contains 25 rounds, giving you a practical quantity for range sessions or keeping your favorite revolver loaded and ready.
