Description
The Federal Gold Medal line sets the benchmark for premium target ammunition, and this 38 Special load carries that reputation into the revolver range. Loaded with a 148 grain lead wadcutter bullet, the GM38A is purpose-built for paper-punching accuracy, scoring, and casual indoor/outdoor target practice where clean, perfectly round holes in the target matter as much as point of impact.
The wadcutter profile – a flat-nosed, cylindrical lead bullet – is the traditional choice for target shooting with revolvers, cutting crisp full-diameter holes that are easy to score at any range. Federal pushes this 148 gr lead bullet to a muzzle velocity of 690 fps, generating 156 ft lbs of muzzle energy – mild, controllable recoil well suited to extended range sessions and load development work.
Each round is assembled with a brass case, supporting reliable feeding, extraction, and consistent performance shot after shot. The Gold Medal pedigree means tight component tolerances and uniform loading, giving target shooters dependable match-grade practice ammunition straight out of the box.
Your purchase options:
- Box – 50 Rounds: a single factory box of 50 rounds, ideal for a range session or trying the load.
- Case – 1000 Rounds (20 Boxes): a full case of 1000 rounds (20 boxes of 50), the most economical way to stock up for regular practice or matches.
