About This Black Hills HoneyBadger Load

Black built its reputation on tight manufacturing tolerances and consistent quality control. This 38 Special offering reflects that same standard. The factory sizes and primes each case for reliable chambering across a wide range of revolvers. Additionally, the plant meters every propellant charge carefully, so velocities stay consistent from lot to lot. Therefore, shooters loading this 100 grain precision projectile round can expect uniform cycling and consistent cylinder timing. In short, this ammunition delivers the shot-to-shot consistency that makes practice sessions and function testing meaningful.

Ballistic Performance and SAAMI Specifications

Black manufactures every round in this line to SAAMI’s published specifications for the 38 Special cartridge. This ensures safe chamber pressures and reliable dimensional compatibility with SAAMI-spec firearms. Because this is a +P loading, it operates at a higher pressure ceiling than standard-pressure 38 Special ammunition. Consequently, shooters should confirm their firearm handles +P pressures before firing. For example, handloaders working up their own 100 grain projectiles often reference this factory loading’s published velocity as a useful benchmark. However, chronograph results can vary by barrel length. Therefore, always verify velocity and function in your own firearm before relying on this load for hunting or defensive use.

Boxes ship in standard quantities of 50 rounds, which makes restocking for range day simple.
