HSM Cowboy Action Ammunition 38 Special Low Velocity 158 Grain Lead Round Nose Flat Point Box of 50

HSM Cowboy Action 38 Special ammunition brings authenticity and reliability to your lever-action pistols and period-correct firearms. Whether you're competing in formal Cowboy Action Shooting sanctioned events or just spending a weekend plinking with the guns that built the American West, HSM loads this cartridge with the low velocity performance that keeps recoil manageable and accuracy true. The 158 grain lead round nose flat point (LRNFP) bullet is the classic profile favored by shooters who demand that old-school feel without sacrificing modern quality control.

This isn't ammo for speed junkies or modern tactical rigs—it's purpose-built for the cowboy shooting discipline, where velocity stays modest to suit vintage firearms and minimize wear. HSM has earned trust among serious Cowboy Action competitors and casual enthusiasts alike by keeping the load consistent, the brass quality high, and the price reasonable. A box of 50 rounds gives you enough for a range session or a match stage without breaking the bank.

If you shoot pre-1898 style pistols, replica Colt Peacekemakers, or any 38 Special revolver dialed in for Cowboy Action events, HSM's formula pairs the low-velocity, flat-point design with the consistency you need to stay competitive or just have reliable fun at the range.
