American Eagle .38 Super +P 115 grain JHP serves one of the great enthusiast cartridges in American pistol shooting. The .38 Super has a storied history in competition circles, and Federal loads this version with a 115 grain jacketed hollow point that feeds cleanly and prints consistently. Fifty rounds to the box makes real practice practical.
What American Eagle .38 Super Brings to the Line
American Eagle is the high volume line from Federal, and finding the .38 Super in it is good news for fans of the cartridge. Ammunition support is everything for a classic chambering, and this load keeps Super shooters supplied.
The .38 Super is best known as a 1911 platform cartridge with deep roots in practical competition. It drives lighter bullets fast, and the +P designation in its modern naming reflects the pressure standard current loads are built to.
This box is for the shooters keeping that tradition alive. Owners of .38 Super 1911s and other pistols chambered for the round get a dependable jacketed hollow point at a volume friendly price.
The Super’s competition history is worth knowing even if you never shoot a match. It gave 1911 shooters a way to run fast and flat with manageable recoil, and entire divisions of practical shooting were shaped around what this cartridge could do. That heritage is why the round still commands loyalty today.
Features Worth Noting
Every 50 round box carries the same practical strengths:
- 115 grain jacketed hollow point bullet in a fast, flat shooting cartridge
- Clean, positive feeding through 1911 pattern pistols and other Super chambered guns
- Consistent point of impact that keeps your sights and data honest
- 50 round boxes, a real session count rather than a sample pack
- Loaded to the cartridge’s +P marked modern standard
- Priced so a classic chambering stays affordable to actually shoot
American Eagle .38 Super Specifications
The bullet weighs 115 grains, a light and quick loading that suits the character of the cartridge. The .38 Super has always been about velocity, and a 115 grain projectile keeps the trajectory flat and the recoil impulse brisk but manageable.
The jacketed hollow point design gives this load a purpose beyond punching paper. It feeds like practice ammo yet delivers the terminal behavior a hollow point is built for.
A jacketed hollow point at practice pricing is a quiet bargain as well. You can vet your defensive magazines, prove feeding through your own pistol, and still afford to send the rest of the box at paper. Few calibers let you practice with genuine hollow points this affordably.
Each box holds 50 rounds. That is enough for a proper session with your Super, and stacking a few boxes keeps a niche caliber from ever sidelining your favorite pistol.
Practical Use, Care, and Compatibility
Fire this ammunition only in firearms chambered for .38 Super. It is not interchangeable with .38 Special or other .38 caliber cartridges, and the +P marking means your pistol should be in good mechanical condition, so match the barrel stamp exactly.
Confirm your point of impact when switching to this load, especially if your pistol wears fixed sights regulated for another bullet weight. A single magazine at the bench answers the question.
Modern interest has kept this chambering alive well beyond the game that made it famous. Enthusiasts appreciate a round that runs flat, hits hard, and wears its history proudly, and a steady ammunition supply is what keeps those pistols shooting.
Store your stock cool and dry, and grab spares when you see them. Our full ammunition department keeps this and the rest of your calibers within easy reach.
For the shooters who never let the Super fade, American Eagle .38 Super +P is the load that keeps it running. This ammunition ships straight to your door wherever state and local law allows.
