FBI .38 spec LSWCHP+P at ammotogo

[sidheshooter]

Federal's version of the classic 158gr loading, now on sale.

I've been following prices on this stuff for years, and 175 for 500 is as good as I've seen for a while.

FWIW.

Still one of (if not the) best SD 38 rounds available.

Good price.

Thanks for the heads up.

That is excellent ammo for the .38 Spl.

That is a great price especially compared to the Remington FBI Load. I bought a half dozen boxes last year when they ran a sale.

I haven't seen that for sale in a long time.

That's the Fed #38G - a 158gr HiShok JHP SWC +P - not a LHPSWC +P!

Thanks for the heads-up on this, Sidheshooter.
I did order some of this ammunition after reading the two reviews, which indicated that it was LSWCHP ammo and not jacketed. Order number was FED38G on my bill.
I guess I'll find out when it shows up. If it's not the LSWCHP ammo, it'll still get used in my .38, .357 Mags and a Marlin 1894C rifle.
One reviewer indicated a poor crimp on his rounds, the other reviewer did not see this issue.

Are those really the JHP ammo? If so that's not what I bought last year when the FBI Load was on sale. I can't check the boxes right now to tell you what the part number is.

I have a feeling that is the FBI Load made by Federal.

Is this thread pertinent?

My info came from Federal's LE ammo site. I'll stick with Remingtons... I have never had the longer OAL problem some folks reported.
