The .38 TJ (Todd Jarrett) or Super Comp cartridge is a rimless pistol cartridge designed for competitive shooting, particularly in International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC) and United States Practical Shooting Association (USPSA) events. It is similar to the .38 Super but without a semi-rim, making it ideal for use in high-capacity magazines for competitive settings. This cartridge is known for its high velocity and flat trajectory, which are beneficial for rapid target engagement in practical shooting sports. Typically, it is used in custom or semi-custom race guns designed for high performance and reliability under competitive conditions. The .38 TJ or Super Comp offers improved feeding reliability in double-stack magazines compared to the semi-rimmed .38 Super.
