Description
Remington built these Performance Wheelgun rounds specifically for revolver and lever-action rifle owners who want target-grade ammunition that delivers consistent accuracy. The 158 grain lead semi-wadcutter design cuts clean, easily scored holes in paper targets, which is why this weight and bullet style has become popular for both range work and competition shooting.
What Makes This Wheelgun Ammo Stand Out
The semi-wadcutter profile gives you several advantages over standard round-nose bullets. The distinctive shoulder of the bullet creates a sharper edge that punches clean holes in targets instead of the frayed, ragged holes you get from round-nose designs. At 1235 feet per second muzzle velocity, these rounds maintain moderate recoil while delivering reliable performance shot after shot. The 158 grain weight offers a good balance between impact and velocity control, which is why it's been a favorite among serious handgun competitors for decades.
Built With Remington's Quality Components
These cartridges use high-quality brass cases with Remington Kleanbore primers, which are formulated to resist rust and corrosion in the barrel. That matters when you're putting through volume at the range. The brass is reloadable, so if you handload, you're getting extra value from every box. Each box contains 50 rounds and comes from Remington's Performance Wheelgun line, which is purpose-built for the demands of revolver shooters who know their gun.
Right Tool for the Job
If you run a revolver or lever gun regularly, these are solid practice and competition rounds. The 158gr semi-wadcutter has proven itself across decades of use for target work. You'll notice tighter, cleaner scores on your targets compared to heavier hunting loads or lighter defense rounds.
