357 Mag

357 Magnum is a handgun cartridge that was introduced in 1935. The cartridge was designed based upon the Smith & Wesson’s earlier 38 Special cartridge. Both of these cartridges have the same bullet diameter with the only external difference in dimensions being their case length.

The 357 Magnum is known as an excellent hunting, target shooting or self defense round. It can also be effective against large game in dangerous situations if loaded correctly. With less energy than the larger magnum revolves, like the 44 magnum or the 454 casuall, the smaller diameter creates higher velocity allowing for exceptional penetration. The 357 magnum compares to the 45 colt in its effectiveness on game, but with its higher velocity it creates a much flatter trajectory.
