Accuracy, round after round and at an unequaled value. Ultramax ammunition represents serious quality for serious shooters. Since their introduction in 1986, Ultramax uses a 10-Step Quality Assurance System to provide top of the line ammunition to hunters and shooters. This system includes loading ammunition to SAAMI specs and a visual inspection of the loaded cartridge before it leaves the building.
Remanufactured ammunition also goes through the 10-Step QA System. Once fired brass is inspected for flaws and is washed to clear the primer pockets and flash holes from any debris. Ultramax also sizes each piece of price to the same SAAMI specs as new brass. Remanufactured ammunition is often loaded with mixed head stamped brass. This ammunition is non-corrosive in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 38 Special (38 S&W Special, 38 Colt Special) was introduced in 1902. It is essentially a slightly extended 38 Long Colt case, length 1.1551 inches, with operating pressure increased from 13,000 to 17,000 psi. Bullet diameter is .357-inch. The 38 Special became the gold standard personal defense revolver cartridge and was standard among most American law enforcement agencies for many years. Bullet weights vary from 110 to 158 grains, with a 158-grain bullet at 800 feet per second the most common. In the 1960s pressure was increased again to 18,500 psi, creating the 38 Special +P load, with increased velocity and energy. 38 Long and Short Colt ammunition can be fired in any 38 Special chamber, but not the reverse. 38 Special +P is safe in modern steel-frame 38 Special revolvers, but should not be used in aluminum-frame 38 Special revolvers. 38 Special remains a standard and popular revolver chambering.
