38 Super Auto Ammo for Sale Online
The 38 Super caliber is a popular choice among shooters for its versatility and performance. This caliber is often used for target shooting, self-defense, and competition shooting. It is a high-pressure cartridge that delivers increased velocity and energy compared to other handgun calibers, making it a good choice for longer-range shooting and penetration. Many popular firearms, including 1911-style semi-automatic pistols, are available in 38 Super.
The 38 Super caliber was introduced in the late 1920s as a higher-pressure version of the popular 38 ACP (also known as the 38 Automatic Colt Pistol) cartridge. The 38 ACP had been in use since the turn of the 20th century and was widely used by law enforcement and military personnel. However, as firearms technology advanced and new, more powerful cartridges were developed, the 38 ACP began to fall behind in terms of performance.
In an effort to improve the performance of the 38 ACP, the 38 Super was introduced with a higher pressure rating, resulting in increased velocity and energy. The 38 Super quickly gained popularity among law enforcement and military personnel, as well as civilian shooters, due to its improved performance.
Over time, the 38 Super has remained a popular choice among shooters, particularly for those who prefer the 1911-style semi-automatic pistol. It is widely used for a variety of shooting applications, including self-defense, competition shooting, and target shooting.
The 38 Super is a centerfire cartridge, meaning that the primer is located in the center of the base of the cartridge. It uses a rimless case and is typically loaded with a bullet weight of 115 to 147 grains. Most .38 Super ammo is known for its relatively flat trajectory and good accuracy at longer ranges.
One of the main benefits of the 38 Super is its ability to be used in firearms chambered for the 38 ACP. This allows shooters to easily upgrade their 38 ACP firearms to a higher-performance caliber without the need for a new firearm. However, it is important to note that 38 Super ammunition should only be used in firearms specifically designed and chambered for the 38 Super caliber.
In addition to its use in 1911-style semi-automatic pistols, the 38 Super is also used in a variety of other firearms, including revolvers and some competition rifles. It has a reputation for being a reliable and accurate caliber that is well-suited for a wide range of shooting applications.
Ammunition for the 38 Super caliber is widely available in a variety of bullet styles and weights, including full metal jacket, hollow point, and jacketed soft point options. This allows shooters to choose the best round for their specific shooting needs and preferences.
