Self Defense
You’re looking for proper 38 Special +P ammunition for personal protection, and you have just found it: Federal Premium Punch, which is made in Minnesota and designed to handle the kinds of threats civilians are commonly confronted by.
This is an overpressure cartridge. Its propellant charge is more powerful than a standard pressure load’s, which is why its 120 grain jacketed hollow point projectile strikes its target with superior kinetic energy (but not before generating more recoil energy than usual). While this ammo is safe for all 357 Magnum revolvers and rifles, it must only be fired in 38 Special firearms that are rated for +P – otherwise you risk physical injury and firearm damage.
The Punch series JHP bullet isn’t designed to satisfy the FBI test protocol; in other words, it’s not meant for self-defense scenarios where the shooter and the threat are separated by vehicle doors, auto glass and such. But the JHP’s soft lead core and skived jacket make it perfectly capable of expanding inside soft tissue, even if the bullet first has to pass through thick clothing.
Federal protects their self-defense rounds against moisture and humidity by loading them with sealed Boxer primers. The Minnesotan company’s high-quality brass cases promise smooth functionality whether they’re destined for a cylinder or a lever-action rifle’s magazine.
