Question:Is the wad cutter seated flush with the case
Such as the ammo used in the S&W model 52?

Response:Steven, the wadcutter on these 38 Special rounds from Black Hills is not seated flush to the case it does protrude about a mm by the looks of it. Thank you for visiting TargetSportsUSA.com
Question:Hello:I am confused. I have always thought that a wadcutteer was for target shooting at paper targets. But you state that this ammo is for self defense and home protection. Please explain. Thanks.

Response:Richard, generally that is true, wadcutter ammo is very popular for paper targets. Wadcutters have also found favor for use in self-defense guns, such as .38 caliber snubnosed revolvers, where, due to short barrel lengths, maximum bullet velocities are usually low, typically under 900 ft/s (274 m/s), and improved lethality is desired.
