A reminder to note the product code for the Winchester Super X 38 Super ammo in the pics above. It's X38ASHP. It's the same for the boxes differently labeled over the years. Type X ammo, 38 Automatic, Silvertip Hollow Point. Win. still produces it.

I suppose a rough analogy is that 38 Super is to 9MM as 357 is to 38 Special. A more powerful load in a longer case to prevent it being fired in pistols not chambered for it. Though since the 38 Super was developed from the 38 ACP
that isn't quite right. Years ago in Guns and Ammo one of the writers found that firing 9MM in a Colt Government Model 38 Super was merely a matter of changing the barrel and magazine. |
