Hornady 38Cal 158gr SWC Lead x300 #10408
For complete balance and consistency, Hornady® lead pistol bullets are cold-swaged and pre-lubricated. To prevent leading in your barrel, we've developed an innovative knurling technique that holds lubrication across the whole bearing surface.
CLASSIC & CONVENTIONAL DESIGN
Traditional conical and flat designs have perfect symmetry when combined with knurling at the base of the bullet, which deliver increased stability and accuracy. This ensures proper positioning in authentic revolvers, with no unwanted nicking of primers as the cylinder turns.
SPECIAL KNURLING AND GREASE RING
The knurling system holds an even distribution of lubricating wax over the bearing surface of the Cowboy bullet, resulting in less leading.
Q: What is the advantage of a semi-wadcutter (SWC) design?
A: The SWC profile cuts clean, easily visible holes in targets, making scoring more accurate and consistent.
Q: Can these be used in both .38 Special and .357 Magnum?
A: Yes, they are compatible with both cartridges when loaded to appropriate specifications.
Q: Are these suitable for high-velocity loads?
A: Lead bullets are typically best used at moderate velocities to reduce leading; proper lubrication and load selection are important.
Q: Do these come lubricated?
A: Hornady lead bullets are typically swaged and may include lubrication—confirm packaging details if required.
