This box of 500 hollow base wadcutter (HBWC) cartridges from Black Hills ammo should keep you at the range for a long time! Intended for target shooting or competitions, these .38 Special wadcutters come in boxer-primed brass cases.

Wadcutter ammunition carries a specialty flat-front bullet intended for shooting paper targets at relatively close ranges. Wadcutters tend to leave the barrel at subsonic velocities. Wadcutters are generally used for competition and short-range target shooting, especially at indoor ranges. Because of their flat front, wadcutters feed poorly through standard semi-automatic pistols and are generally used in revolvers or specially-designed semi-auto firearms. Wadcutter ammunition has also occasionally found favor as a close-range self-defense round for short-barreled pistols.

Black Hills is known for manufacturing extremely high-quality ammunition that’s a favorite of hunters and law enforcement around the country. They provide match-grade ammunition to every US Military Service Rifle competition team, and their ammunition is used by many major gun manufacturers to test their products. Black Hills takes pride in selling serious ammunition for the serious shooter.

Q: Dirty shot or ?????

Posted On: 5/25/2020 By: Eugene HAMMER

A: Well, this round's bullet hasn't got a gilding metal jacket, so you're going to notice more lead fouling than you would if you were firing FMJs. That said, Black Hills only selects premium components to load with at their South Dakota facility. These rounds' primers are totally non-corrosive, and their propellant is modern and super clean burning. I've actually asked Black Hills what kind of propellant blend they use, but that's a secret they're keeping really close to their chest!
