The Cor-Bon Glaser Pow’RBall .38 Super Auto 100gr JHP load (part no. PB38X100) brings the Pow’RBall design to the higher-pressure .38 Super Auto cartridge, a favorite among competition and carry shooters who want extra velocity from a 1911-pattern pistol. A polymer ball fills the bullet’s hollow cavity so it feeds through a semi-auto action like a round-nose bullet, then drives rearward into the jacket on impact to trigger rapid, reliable expansion. That combination has made Pow’RBall one of the more recognizable names in defensive handgun ammunition. It is a proven option for shooters who carry a .38 Super for personal protection or competition.
