Description
A traditional 158-grain hollow-point choice for .38-caliber handloaders
The 158-grain weight remains a familiar starting point for handloaders working with compatible .38-caliber cartridges. Gold Country makes this .357-diameter Javelina for reloaders who want a clearly identified jacketed hollow-point component instead of another interchangeable bulk bullet.
This listing is for 50 component bullets. Cases, primers, powder and load data are not included.
Why this Javelina exists
The Javelina combines a copper jacket, lead core and conventional hollow-point profile in a hand-swaged Gold Country bullet. Its role is to give the reloader a 158-grain hollow-point option whose construction and source are known. Hollow-point geometry describes the bullet; it does not guarantee expansion, accuracy, penetration or a particular field or defensive result.

Choose the complete load, not the bullet name alone
Cartridge suitability and results depend on the complete load, firearm, barrel or cylinder, impact conditions and published data being followed. Use only current published load data appropriate to the exact cartridge and components. Confirm bullet diameter, cartridge overall length, chamber or cylinder fit and firearm condition before use.
