NRA Action Pistol, IDPA and IPSC competitors take note: SIG Sauer has introduced 125gr .38 Super +P Elite Performance Ammunition in V-Crown jacketed hollow point (JHP) and SIG FMJ full metal jacket loads.

With a muzzle velocity of 1230 feet per second, the 125gr .38 Super +P ammunition delivers exceptional accuracy and reliability.  The SIG V-Crown load features a proprietary stacked hollow point bullet for reliable, uniform expansion and optimal terminal performance. DUCTA–BRIGHT 7A coated brass cases also provide enhanced lubricity, offering superior corrosion resistance, and more reliable feeding and extraction in semi-automatic pistols.

Additionally, the SIG FMJ premium target loads feature solid brass cases and durable, copper-jacketed bullets that remain intact on impact. The precise, uniform profile of the SIG FMJ bullets results in maximum accuracy and consistency. Dependable primers and clean-burning powders are used for reduced barrel fouling with more reliable functioning. 

“With the introduction of the .38 Super +P ammunition, we now offer Elite Performance Ammunition for all SIG Sauer pistols,” said Dan Powers, president of the SIG Sauer Ammunition Division.  “SIG FMJ ammunition is the perfect combination of affordability and performance in a premium target round.  It is designed to approximate the performance of the corresponding SIG V-Crown jacketed hollow point rounds, giving our customers the advantage of a seamless transition from target ammo to carry ammo.”

All Elite Performance Ammunition is manufactured in the U.S. by SIG Sauer to the same exacting standards as the company’s premium pistols and rifles.  For more information, please go to www.sigsauer.com/ammunition.
