These excellent .357 magnum rounds are a great choice for self-defense that replicate popular 148 grain match loads. That particular weight is well-liked for its compromise between flat trajectory and massive terminal energy at appreciable distance. Each cartridge features a reloadable brass casing, a clean-igniting boxer primer, and a jacketed hollow-point (JHP) projectile which has a covered base and leaves very little lead residue behind in your carry revolver or home-defense lever-gun. The round’s curved ogive and flat tip make it easy to load into cylinder and safe for storage in a tube magazine.
This .357 JHP design uses a deep cavity with a shallow mouth that is situated in the bullet’s exposed lead tip. Upon impact with a target, the projectile is designed to begin expanding in diameter which gives it a tumbling effect that creates a larger wound cavity than a conventional FMJ. While the bullet’s toothed cannelure preserves accuracy under recoil, it also slows the rate of expansion during entry so that the projectile can fully penetrate into a target before slowing to a stop; this translates to momentum being delivered to a threat’s vital organs in order to yield an efficient drop.
