Berry’s 38 Cal 125gr Target HP

Berry’s 38 Cal 125gr Target HP is a plated bullet component crafted for handloaders focused on developing accurate, clean-shooting loads in .38 Special and .357 Magnum platforms. Featuring a hollow point profile and full copper plating, this 125-grain projectile supports a wide range of target and training applications in revolvers and lever-action rifles. Sold as a bullet component only—not factory-loaded ammo—it is designed for consistent, high-volume performance in classic .38-caliber firearms.

The bullet is formed around a swaged lead core and electroplated with copper to its final weight. A re-strike process ensures uniformity in diameter and shape, optimizing accuracy and feeding. It measures .357″ in diameter with a bullet overall length of .554″, intended for cartridges seated to an overall length of approximately 1.445″ in .38 Special and 1.580″ in .357 Magnum. The full encapsulation eliminates exposed lead, making it safe for indoor range use and reducing barrel fouling.

The hollow point design enhances aerodynamics and provides improved stability during flight, while also allowing for consistent seating and alignment. Though not intended for expansion, the target-style HP configuration contributes to precise impact behavior and flat trajectories, especially in medium-frame revolvers and tubular-fed carbines chambered in these calibers.

Berry’s recommends keeping muzzle velocity at or below 1,250 feet per second to preserve plating integrity and ensure optimal performance. Handloaders can use data for comparable 125gr plated or jacketed hollow point bullets, and should apply either a taper or roll crimp with care to avoid deforming the plated surface, which may affect ballistic consistency.

Berry’s 38 Cal 125gr Target HP delivers a strong balance of precision, affordability, and cleanliness for reloaders targeting dependable range performance. Its clean shooting characteristics, dimensional reliability, and target-optimized geometry make it a smart choice for competitive shooting, structured training sessions, or everyday target practice in .38-caliber platforms.
