The Buffalo Bore .38 Super +P 124gr JHP is a full-power load for .38 Super pistols, packed 20 rounds to the box (Buffalo Bore part no. 33B20). It sends a 124-grain jacketed hollow point out at a published 1,350 fps with 502 ft-lbs of energy. Buffalo Bore built it as one of five .38 Super +P loads that cover both expanding and penetrating bullets. A flash-suppressed powder keeps the muzzle flash down in low light, and the maker reports good feeding, function and accuracy in its three test pistols. It is a strong choice for a .38 Super owner who wants an expanding carry or field load.
