I went out to the academy today and shot the new Secondary Weapon Course. Loads of fun. 350 rounds of +P 38 out of an Airlite J frame. It was actually a pretty good course, if rough on the hands, and it is nice that the BUGs are now officially approved. The bad news is that until we have used up the stockpile both training and issue ammo for the BUGs is the duty ammo from when we still carried model 10 revolvers (91-92 was the changeover). It is a 125 gr +P SJHP and seems a little on the warm side, with a huge muzzle flash. Manufacturer is Zero and the brass is nickle plated and has our agency headstamp. Does anyone know anything about this ammunition? It shoots accurate enough out to the 25 yard line and surely beats harsh language, but I don't like carrying a load I know nothing about. Especially 20 year old unknown ammo.
