357 Cartridge

357 Magnum PMC 158gr JSP (Jacketed Soft Point) bullet is a popular choice for both self-defense and hunting purposes.

These bullets feature a lead core that is encased in a copper jacket, which is designed to control expansion upon impact. The soft point design of the bullet allows for controlled expansion, maximizing energy transfer to the target. This results in a larger wound channel and increased stopping power.

Can a 357 Magnum Penetrate Body Armor?

It is unlikely that a .357 Magnum round would penetrate body armor rated for firearms. Body armor, especially modern versions, are specifically designed to protect against high-powered and high-velocity bullets. The .357 Magnum, while a powerful handgun round, does not have the same amount of energy or velocity as rifle rounds or even some other handgun rounds like the .44 Magnum or .357 SIG. Body armor can also vary in quality and effectiveness, so it is important to do thorough research and make an informed decision.

Can You Shoot 38 Special in 357 Magnum?

However, the reverse is not true as the .357 Magnum is a longer cartridge and will not fit in a .38 Special revolver. It is always important to check with the manufacturer’s guidelines before using any ammunition in a firearm.
