these were around a few years ago plastic case and bullet it used primers for power. What are they called and where can I get them
Watch OKorder in outdoor/hunting/reloading equipment. search for bullets, .38sp or plastic bullets. Used with only primers, they can be reloaded as many times as you can find them as long as they are not disformed. My dad sold some on there a few months ago. They are good for learning follow through, and trigger break point to help with acuracy. Anyone with a .38 reloader can get you going, have fun be safe.
From the Speer website: For informal target practice in places with a minimum backstop, finding the proper ammo isn’t always easy. Speer plastic training bullets and cases make the perfect practice load for informal target practice in places with a minimum backstop. This is not loaded ammunition. Primers are not included. Recommended for handguns only. Use only in areas with adequate ventilation. Do not use any propellant powder when assembling these cartridges. Reusable molded plastic cases and bullets powered by CCI large pistol primers provide an accurate and inexpensive alternative. They are designed for 25 foot shooting. Simply prime the case, insert the plastic wadcutter bullet and you’re ready to go. Primer power alone gives the lightweight bullet 300-400 feet/sec velocity. You can stop these in a simple bullet trap made from carpet scraps and cardboard. Bullets can be reused several times. Bullets and cases are sold separately so you can replace lost or damaged bullets. They are packed 50 bullets or cases to the box.
Plastic, okorder . A box of 50 (part #713633) is $8.69 (+sh), and you might want to hurry, as their webpage shows they only have five(5) on hand, so, if you don't want to wait, get your order in now. Once you resize one batch of brass for these, they're good forever, as they don't need resizing after use, just reprime and push the rubber plug in again. If you don't have reloading gear, you could buy new brass and a hand priming tool just for this purpose. Once you have your brass, the X-Ring's are much more economical and durable than the Speer two-component plastic rounds, in my book. I've reused mine 20 or more times, indoors and out, and had a blast with 'em!
