Remington .38spl 130gr FMJ Ammo

I am considering ordering several boxes. Anyone shoot this ammo?
Does it print POA?
Thanks,
Jimmy

It shoots fine. POA/POI will be unique to your individual revolver, you'll need to shoot a box and find out.

+1 for decent ammo. It shoots low from my Model 10 however.

Remington 130 grain 38 spl.

Pretty good stuff. I shot it through a new model 40 on the first time shooting the pistol. It has good punch and consistent. If the (steel) j frame can work it, anything larger should be really decent.

Yes....good stuff...I bought 500 rounds from Ammo to Go, and I have reloaded them a bunch too....good quality for the dollar.

Very anemic.It will shoot well below POA.If you have a revolver with adjustable sights and bought this ammo in quanity,it would suffice as a dedicated target round.

If you plan on shooting USPSA, ICORE or IDPA with it, it will not make the minimum power factor. It is very light ammo but for practice it's good stuff and you can shoot it up and use the brass.

It's OK for target shooting but pitiful for self defense. It's essentially the old and despised Air Force issue round.

I've used it for paper and Bowling Pins. I'll have to tell you, I sleep easy in knowledge that I know, "IF" I were ever carrying this ammo, I would be able to take care of any and all attacking bowling pins, and the back-up paper targets!

It's good stuff for just shootin'! Don't even think about using it for BGs. If you can get a good deal on it, buy it. It's reasonably clean, goes "bang" everytime, and it shot well in my M66 and GP100.

Take Care, God Bless, And WATCH Your Back!

Over the years I've shot a lot of 130gr UMC ammo and it shoots fine. It's clean and fairly accurate too.

It shoots fine, but I do find that out of a 2" barrel it has rather surprising flash and blast for its somewhat anemic ballistics.
