Underwood 38 Special +P Ammunition 125 Grain Full Metal Jacket Flat Nose - 127
The Underwood .38 Special +P 125 Grain Full Metal Jacket-Flat Nose Ammunition is a powerful choice designed for woods defense. Perfect for fending off wild animals such as hogs or black bears, these non-expanding FMJ-FN bullets offer substantial penetrative power. Unlike traditional round nose bullets, the flat nose design maintains optimal penetration by keeping its forward position intact while piercing through dense matter. Constructed with nickel-plated brass casings, this ammunition not only ensures improved feeding across various firearms but also offers enhanced corrosion resistance and cosmetic appeal. Furthermore, the use of flash suppressed powder ensures that your vision remains uncompromised in low-light conditions, while the boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases make it a practical choice for shooting enthusiasts.
Features and Specifications:
- Enhanced Feeding: Nickel-plated brass casings provide improved feeding in all firearm actions.

- Optimal Penetration: Flat nose design maintains its trajectory through dense targets.
