Dbltap 38spl 110gr Jhp 20/1000

The DoubleTap 38 Special 110 grain Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition is a purpose-built defensive load engineered for concealed carry and home defense applications. This standard non-+P loading delivers controlled recoil and proven expansion characteristics without the pressure and handling concerns associated with +P offerings, making it ideal for shooters managing lighter-recoiling revolvers and compact defensive platforms.

Ballistically, this 38 Special JHP round achieves 1,175 feet per second velocity from a 4-inch barrel, generating 337 foot-pounds of muzzle energy—sufficient for reliable expansion and terminal performance in defensive scenarios. From a 1.875-inch snub-nose revolver, velocity drops to 1,100 fps with 296 foot-pounds, reflecting the velocity penalty inherent to short-barrel platforms but maintaining the load's defensive effectiveness at typical self-defense ranges. The 110-grain hollow-point bullet design prioritizes controlled expansion and adequate penetration depth, critical performance factors in modern defensive ammunition selection.

This ammunition addresses a specific operator need: those carrying compact revolvers, pocket guns, or individuals seeking reduced-recoil defensive options without sacrificing terminal performance. Law enforcement agencies and private security personnel have long relied on 38 Special loads for backup weapons and off-duty carry, and DoubleTap's formulation serves that mission profile. The light recoil impulse enables faster follow-up shots and reduces shooter fatigue during training while maintaining ballistic standards expected from professional-grade defensive ammunition.
