I need some help identifying a bullet

[gsc3zny]

I ordered some bullets quite awhile ago, and the bag was not marked with the caliber. Can someone help me as to what they are. They are either 9mm or .38

Length .666 in
Diameter .354
150 grn

From what i can find on the internet, it could either be 9mm or .38. Does it really matter if the specs are the same?

If they are really .354" then they are meant for the 9mm.

If they are lead, .354" is too small for either the 9 or the 38. They will lead badly.

They are lead

My condolences.

I will probably just pull them and dispose of, not to take any chances

Did you not get an invoice?

Is this loaded ammunition? By your description in your first post, I think everyone was assuming you were asking about just the bullets, not loaded ammunition.

If it is loaded ammunition, just look at the markings on the head stamp. It should identify the cartridge.

no, its just the bullets, and no, cannot find invoice

Those bullets sound like great candidates for the powder coating treatment.

How much does powder coating increase diameter?

Just a tad heavy for a 9mm but it could also be for a .38 Super
