PPU .38 Super Auto +P 130gr FMJ Ammunition

PPU .38 Super Auto +P 130-grain FMJ ammunition (brand part no. PPH38SU) is built for the shooters keeping .38 Super alive in competition holster divisions and classic 1911 pattern pistols. PPU loads this round to +P pressure, matching the higher-pressure standard most .38 Super pistols are actually built and tuned around, unlike the lower-pressure original SAAMI spec. The full metal jacket bullet resists deformation for dependable feeding through the single-stack and double-stack 1911-pattern guns this cartridge is most commonly found in. Boxed 50 to a container with 10 boxes to a case, this is straightforward handgun ammunition for a cartridge that’s become a competition specialty rather than a mainstream chambering.
