Look ammunition manufacturers, you can exceed the velocity on the box from a reasonable for caliber barrel length, and everything will be OK. We're all still here. We consumers would LOVE IT if you learned from this. Great viddy as usual, thank you!

[@ToolsandTargets]

Amen!😎👊

[@lorenrogers9269]

If you haven’t tested .380 Pow’rBall, could you? Maybe an all “problem caliber” feature with the best ammo choices? Thanks for all you do!

[@ToolsandTargets]

I'll see if I can get a hold of some.😎👍

[@PassivePortfolios]

The 380 is notorious for not expanding. I have had good luck with Critical Defense though. Cor-Bon's 380 would be a very interesting and useful test.

[@Cr0wmagnum]

That is an excellent idea!

[@andyd2960]

Ya I like this "problem caliber" idea. With new technology some of these weaker calibers should at least be sufficiently improved for recoil sensitive and maybe elderly carriers.

[@rensuchan]

Seconding this. Would love to see a test of the .380 version. Always interested in seeing what .380 loads do since it's the main carry cartridge in my house.

[@chefrarestones1960]

Back in the day when revolvers and 1911’s ruled the day this ammo was marketed for use in 1911’s that had problems feeding hollow points. They use to advertise the polymer ball was for reliable feeding in tight 1911’s that jammed on hollow points. In the 80’s I carried it in my 1911’s.

[@charlesphillips5906]

I carried it in a temperamental 380, it ran like FMJ

[@robertkwiatkoski1292]

I am always confused when ( i think it was). Hornaday says they are the 1st round with the filler? I also had a box of power- ball. 357? Or 45? I'm not quite sure what it was. Thank you.

[@jimchambers7548]

That's some of the best 38spl I've seen for a short barrel 🔫

[@ToolsandTargets]

Same. Really good stuff.

[@colt-ss3lw]

@@ToolsandTargets What does it do from a lever action rifle? 🤔

[@wigon]

@@colt-ss3lw Same, I'd LOVE to see that. These things are getting into .357 magnum velocity levels (although obviously with a smaller bullet. It would be interesting to see if whether they expand even better or if they just fragment into pieces at the higher velocities. But for sure I'm going to order some of these for my Taurus 605 Poly Defender carry revolver. These seme way more consistent and better performing than the Hornady Critical Defense that I currently carry.

[@deadmeat8754]

Trust Cor Bon to actually deliver a true +P 38 Special loads that delivers. Honestly those may, indeed, be the best 38 Special carry loads ever.

[@johnnorman7708]

Back in the 80s I learned that wad cutter, semi wad cutter, and semi wad cutter hollow point was almost impossible to beat in the old .38 Special for various purposes. Seems as though this hot rod Corbon stuff is getting .38 Super class and or maybe 75% .357 Mag. If you get to 1300 FPS in a .38 Special it's noteworthy if your pressures don't get beyond +P.

[@scottdunn2178]

385ft lbs of energy even out of a 2" rivals 9mm +P out a 3" subcompact. Impressive terminal ballistics too.

[@ToolsandTargets]

Yeah, I was glad to see it.

[@jasonashley4579]

Better sectional density too.

[@gonzob9609]

@@jasonashley4579 Nope, 9mm is smaller in dia, and much heavier.

[@gonzob9609]

Pretty sure he got a hold of some 357 Mag accidently. Can't cheat Science, of physics. 9mm +P is over 40K psi. 38 +P should be around 20K. Should be fine shooting it out of 357, old Chief special, or airweight you'll be playing with fire.

[@gonzob9609]

The box listed 1150 seems right to me.

[@Glewisme]

38 special used to be loaded to near 357 mag ballistics before there was a 357 magnum. That's the origin for the 357 mag.

[@tgbeam]

Dang! I've never considered carrying .38 special but if I could guarantee the ammo would perform like this it definitely makes it an option!

[@ToolsandTargets]

Mhmm

[@Lexicologist1971]

[@PassivePortfolios]

If you can handle the recoil and blast, it would serve you well.

[@egroegmcdonald9870]

You should try the Federal Punch in 38 +P. It also expands very well out of 2 & 3 in snubs. As for the Corbon stuff the ONLY place that seems to have it is on the Glaser site, and they want 40$ a box of 20. Everybody else says out of stock or discontinued.

What's wrong with Federal? Why forfeit half of the 38special market to others?? HST is almost a staple most in most EDC Pistols

Great looking test for sure. Along with SuperVel 38. But Few other guy's tests of this same round did NOT ACHIEVE EXPANSION like this. The ball often stayed intact... Causing no expansion. 🤷‍♀️

[@alexmcgregor2854]

With .38 special it’s penetration that’s key, bleeding out of the exit wound is where the .38 is effective, hollow points are over rated.

[@yomomma107]

Glad to see that corbon is still kicking it old school. Thanks brian for all you do ✌️

[@Cr0wmagnum]

I'm at a loss for words..? If you can repeat that with a different lot number that is one impressive round! That velocity is incredible for a snub .38. Not a fan of light weight .38 bullet but if that is the norm for those you have changed my mind. Do they have that in .45?

[@ToolsandTargets]

Looks like they only offer them in 9, 380, 38 spcl, 357 mag and sig, and 38 super. They did have a couple other calibers back when it was different ownership.

[@JesseLJohnson]

They used to not sure if they do anymore. This was marketed as a load for picky 1911s that had trouble feeding hollow points. I haven't seen any Powerball in years. I guess maybe its still made but my local shop always used to have it on the shelf and its been probably 10 years since I seen any in there.

[@muhlenberg2608]

Thanks for this excellent test. 385 foot-pounds of energy out of the 38 special with a 2 inch barrel is outstanding. 421 foot-pounds out of a 3 inch barrel brings us into the low range for 357 Magnum. This is great stuff. I think I've just found my new EDC ammunition.

[@jamesclark6427]

I use 9mm Pow'RBall in my Bond Stinger derringer. Unfortunately the light 100 grain bullet will not cycle a Luger with complete reliability, but it's a pretty hot load I chronographed at 1,400 fps from a P-38 years ago. I will now add it in .38 Special as well.

[@ToolsandTargets]

Nice

[@ThatMDubyaGuy]

Used the Powerball in a couple of 9mm's that refused to feed anything that had a hollow point, and I didn't want to defile a historical piece. Good stuff and great video.

[@ToolsandTargets]

Thank you sir.😎👊

[@Larry-ds6ib]

That’s the best 38+P so far I guess, in both speed and energy as well as the expansion especially coming from a 2” barrel

[@DelmarLarue]

Now my official Carry load for my 38 J Frames. My 80 year old Mom has always been a great shooter, trained by my street cop Firearms Instructor Dad. She wouldn't have anything but a J Frame S&W. Got her a Couple of Boxes of them too for her 2" Carry Gun and 3" House Gun. I chrono-ed them and sure enough, same velocity neighborhood as yours. I was wondering if maybe somebody at CorBon didn't get the 357 Load data mixed up and loaded these up extra hot. Because the 357 Mags were slower than these. Doesn't seem to bother my guns at all. I wish all quality 38 defense loads were loaded like this.

[@americanpatriot212]

It looks great. But I saw another test OF this ammo using a 1.88inch barrel J-frame. Same ammo. He got zero expansion. The polymer ball stayed put. And the same bullet acted like a FMJ.. (conditions appeared almost identical)

[@ogbobbye]

from the late 70s to around 2008 my EDC was a 5 shot two inch 38 special. in 2008 I started watching gun channels on YT and discovered I had been risking my life every day for the past 30 year. truth is I still believe if I'm in a spot that five shots of 38 spec. can't save me from it's life choices that put me there not not caliber or capacity choice. good test showing what the Pow'RBall 38 spec can do. love your channel

[@carlostrujillo4750]

I will never carry a 5 shot revolver.that last six round just may save your life.

[@robwilson3749]

Never? Never? Is that really what you said here? If a 5 shot revolver was all you had at your disposal at any given time, you'd "never" carry a 5 shot revolver? -PLEASE....

[@carlostrujillo4750]

​@@robwilson3749yes that's what I said.at my disposal it's always a 6 or 7 shot. A revolver is already limited to the number of rounds to carry, let's not make matters worse.

[@TheZombieburner]

That did great. Hollowpoints normally expand like crap out of .38 snubs, not enough speed. I'm still a fan of the hardcast semi-wadcutter or full wadcutter for .38, personally speaking, but these did good.

[@timtimtimmay4654]

I'm legitimately impressed with the velocity out of a 2" barrel. The powder burn seems perfectly made for short barrels. Definitely one of if not the best made for a 2" barrel. It makes for a convincing argument of a 2" barrel .38 special being ample enough for a defense combination. And I usually bash this combo regularly. Very impressed.

The 38 sp is a problem child, but the Buff Bore 110g +p has tested well. The Gold Saber Compact 125g may be a good round, too. My view is that the designers permit too much expansion for the caliber. A limit of .50-.52 expansion pushing a 120g bullet would be ideal. Buff Bore, are you listening?

[@PassivePortfolios]

Would be interesting to compare these to 110 grain 357 mag. loads, which are more commonly available. These hot 38 Special loads might be iffy for some people in 2" barrels due to recoil and blast. I'd use them in 3" and 4" barrels for home defense to better take advantage of their higher pressure. Or in 357 mag revolvers if less recoil and blast is desired compared to full power 357 loads. Anyway, powerful ammo that works as advertised, good job Cor-Bon. Thank for another great test !

Damn this stuff is pretty impressive. Those energy numbers are no joke! I’d def be curious to see some accuracy testing. Also gonna do some searching to see if they make the same round in 357 mag?!
