Made in Lonoke, Arkansas, UMC ammunition is built on a foundation of quality brass and clean-shooting primers—details that matter when you're putting rounds downrange day after day.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between 38 Special and 38 Special +P?

38 Special +P ammunition is loaded to higher pressure than standard 38 Special, producing greater velocity and energy. This round generates 945 feet per second compared to standard-pressure loads, making it suitable for modern handguns rated for +P use. Always verify that your firearm is marked for +P ammunition before using it.

Is this ammunition suitable for personal defense and carry use?

Yes. The 125-grain semi-jacketed hollow point design is engineered for expansion, making these rounds appropriate for defensive applications. Many shooters use similar loads for carry and training in the same platform, allowing you to practice with ammunition that matches your defensive load's performance characteristics.

What handguns fire 38 Special +P?

Most modern 38 Special revolvers and some semi-automatic pistols chambered in 38 Special are rated for +P ammunition. Check your firearm's manual or markings to confirm +P compatibility before use. Common platforms include snub-nose revolvers, service revolvers, and certain compact semi-automatics.

Will this ammunition work in my older 38 Special revolver?

Only if your firearm is specifically marked for +P use. Older or vintage revolvers are typically not rated for +P pressures. Always consult your gun's manual or contact the manufacturer to verify pressure ratings before using any ammunition.
