DoubleTap Tactical .38 Special +P 110gr Lead Free ammunition (brand part no. 38SP110X) is built for shooters who carry a snub-nose or compact .38 revolver and want genuine defensive performance out of a short barrel. DoubleTap loads this round to +P pressure with a lightweight copper-alloy hollow point, using flash-suppressed powder so a shot fired in low light does not leave you night-blind. The lead-free bullet is engineered to expand and penetrate deeply even at reduced velocities from short barrels, a common weak point for .38 Special defensive loads. For pocket-carry revolvers and backup guns, this handgun ammunition is built to perform when it matters most.
