38 Super Auto +P 125gr JHP – Built for Speed. Engineered for Stopping Power.

The 38 Super Auto +P 125gr JHP from COR®BON doesn’t just perform—it dominates. Designed for serious self-defense, this high-velocity load hits fast, expands hard, and stops threats cold. Therefore, if you’re looking for raw, proven stopping power in your carry ammo, this is it.

History and Design

In 1982, COR®BON evaluated conventional hollow points and found most rounds failed to expand after hitting clothing, often passing through like FMJ and leaving shallow damage. That wasn’t acceptable. As a result, we built the original “HOT STUFF”—the foundation for the 38 Super Auto +P 125gr JHP you see today. It’s fast, hits hard, and has earned a one-shot stop rating over 90%.*

Performance and Ballistics

Delivering a muzzle velocity of 1325 fps and 487 ft-lbs of energy, this round transfers energy immediately into the target on impact. Consequently, rapid energy transfer triggers instant expansion, limits over-penetration, and creates devastating wound channels—exactly what you need in a defensive situation.

The bullet design features a gilding metal jacket with a soft lead core, scored inside and out. These scores ensure reliable, controlled expansion. When it mushrooms, the bullet typically doubles in diameter, shredding tissue and maximizing terminal damage. Additionally, it is ideal for function testing. Experts recommend firing at least 200 rounds of your carry ammo to confirm consistent performance, and this round runs clean and dependable.

Bottom Line

The 38 Super Auto +P 125gr JHP is engineered to save lives and is trusted to perform when it matters most.
