PLEASE READ! I have paused my online store to enable me to catch up on the ever deepening backlog of orders. I will also be updating the website to include new bullet lines like the 33 Winchester JFP. Returning customers can contact me directly at www.works4us1@yahoo.com to find out how they can continue to buy bullets while the website is paused. New customers: you are welcome to write and ask all the questions you want and I will do my best to respond to each quickly and accurately. Thank you for your continuing trust and patience!

.38-55 Caliber 255 Grain Jacketed Flat Point Bullets, Various Size. Back Order

  • Sale
  • $38.44


These are component bullets for modern or vintage rifles chambered for the .38-55 caliber cartridge.  This is not loaded ammunition.  These are newly manufactured, hand-made, semi-jacketed, soft point bullets with a 0.200" meplat (flat nose) that are perfect for tubular magazines of all lever action rifles.  You have come to the right place to get the perfect bullet for your .38-55 rifle but custom fitting takes time and demand for my bullets is growing.  Ordering these particular bullets may take up to six months or sometimes more though I continually make them and try to ship by the end of the month following the month your order was taken.  These are excellent bullets that will keep any .38-55 shooting like it should.  The groove diameter of vintage firearms that chamber this cartridge vary widely so I offer this bullet in six different diameters to custom fit the bullet to your firearm.  You will see remarkable improvement using the proper diameter bullets!  Don't know the proper diameter for your bore?  You need my simple to use slugging kit!  With adequate neck grip you can choose my bullets without a cannelure or you can buy a Lee Precision Factory Crimp Die (sold here too) made specifically for the .38-55 cartridge.  This lets you customize the cartridge overall length yet still properly crimp the bullet.
