Anyone seen this 38spl ammo before

Wonder just how hot it is

Might be fun to run that over a chronograph

I was thinking out of my 6" Blackhawk. Probably bordering on .357 I'd bet

Blackhawk would be perfect test for it.

When 38 Special exceeds industry standard its called 38 Special +P. Just another way of saying it

If not marked that way, and with the warnings on the box, I'm assuming it's hotter than +p

Supposedly Winchester came out with it for the U.S. Treasury Dept.
I've seen it in Federal brand also.
I think I've read that the CHP carried it back in revolver days.

I have a big boy x you could run it though, and a couple of 686’s

So like 357 almost-Mag

i think of it more as a “I was held back because l couldn’t make it as a 357 mag,”.
