38 special projectiles

[teufelhawk]

Hi
I have a buddy that is looking for projectiles for his 38 special, 130 grain jacketed. Any one know where some of these might be found?

130 is not a common weight in 38 caliber. Plenty of 125 to be found though.

It shows up some in factory ammo, so it must be available somwhere. No idea where, though.

OP:
Plated or jacketed? That might have an impact on availability.

Campro ----- 125gr.

-I’ll check out campro.
-From what my buddy was saying he’s looking for jacketed. But I’m think he’ll take what can be found.

Thanks for the info! ��

Look for bullets. That is the technical name for those pointy things.

Winchester and Remingtom make 130gr MC bullets.

Since the term “bullet” is so often used incorrectly, I thought the term projectile would be correctly interpreted. I guess I was wrong in that.

I’ve passed on the information to my buddy. Many thanks for all the useful suggestions.

I am now going to call them " pointy things ".
.
So later, I plan to load up some 9mm with 147 grain pointy things.

I call them “tips” after I saw that post where a guy bought bullets and thought he was getting loaded ammo, and complained that he was sold just the “tips of the bullet”.

That "Tips" thread will go down in history as a Gunnutz classic......
