Federal American Eagle 38 Special 158 grain lead round nose AE38B ammo keeps the old-fashioned revolver target bullet alive in a modern factory load. Its unjacketed 158-grain projectile has a rounded nose rather than the sharp shoulder of a wadcutter or the open cavity of a hollow point. That traditional shape is exactly what many wheelgun shooters expect from a lead-bullet practice cartridge.
A lead round nose bullet asks a little more of the shooter during cleaning than a jacketed one. Bore deposits can vary with the firearm and the length of a range session, making inspection worthwhile after extended practice. Federal lists this ammunition at 770 fps; there is no reason to dress up that straightforward specification as an unverified accuracy claim.
The appeal of this ammo is the familiar 158-grain lead design for deliberate trigger work and target shooting, particularly in a revolver whose owner prefers traditional bullet construction. American Eagle packages 50 rounds in brass cases.
