Hornady 10508 Lead Pistol Bullets .38 Cal 158gr

Hornady Lead Pistol Bullets for Reliable Handloading

Hornady's .38 caliber lead bullets represent a time-tested approach to affordable, accurate pistol ammunition. These 158-grain round nose projectiles are engineered for shooters who demand consistency without compromise.

Manufacturing Excellence

Unlike cast bullets, Hornady's lead bullets are cold-swaged, not cast. This process ensures superior uniformity and balance across every round. The result is ammunition that shoots to the same point of impact, round after round.

Reduced Barrel Leading

The exclusive knurling system at the bullet's base holds lubricant evenly across the entire bearing surface. This design feature significantly reduces barrel leading—a common problem with lead ammunition. Your barrel stays cleaner, and you spend less time maintaining your firearm.
