357 sig anyone?

[never4get]

I'm sure someone has a veiw on this caliber! I have a Glock 23 and a Glock22 that I have bought Lonewolf conversion barrels for.. Haven't got to shoot the 22 yet, but the 23 seems to like it. I was thinking that the 357sig. would make a good "Trail Gun" (But then again, what gun doesn't make a good trail gun?) I hear the 357sig is close to the 357mag. 125gr. as far as power level, and thats a "killer" load. Of course, this is not for bear.. I think for other 2 and 4 legged critters, this just might fit the bill! so if you have any thoughts, I'd like to hear your stories! Thanks in advance, this is by far one of the best sites I have found in a long time

It is a solution looking for a problem.

That can be said about all calibers. The .357sig is a very good round. Shoots flat and loads well. It was developed to match .357 magnum ballistics in a semi auto. It does that, for the most part. Is it exactly like the .357 magnum? No. But pretty darn close.

It is a solution looking for a problem.

Actually, it is a solution to a lot of problems. The bottle necked design solves feeding issues present in many smaller guns and the increased power and velocity give the 9mm size bullet much better hard barrier penetration and soft tissue expansion.

But an elegant solution!

I shoot best with .357SIG and like it's penetration capabilities.

I have a Glock 31/32/33. It's definitely my favorite round for carry, and Underwood has 125gr Gold Dots pushing 1500fps out of a 4" barrel. Eat your heart out 357 magnum.

Keep in mind I'm also a huge 10mm fan, so I'm probably a little delusional.

I love the round, but sold it off because I couldn't afford to feed it.

 

[deen_ad]

I had a Glock 33 with internal laser, sold it.
Have had a KelTec P-40 with the optional .357 SIG barrel. Nice gun but you better hold on to it!
I like the round but carry a Kimber Ultra Crimson Carry II, naturally in .45.

I love the round, but sold it off because I couldn't afford to feed it.

It costs almost three times what 9mm costs. I definitely do not get to shoot it for fun. Some occasional practice to stay familiar and that is it.

Easy to reload: bullets are cheap and fun to shoot. You gota see what hp's do to water jugs, etc. Glock 33 w/grip laser, XD 4in, and a Sig P229. Talk about variety!

 

[boxer13]

Would love to get one but considering it is so damn expensive to feed there is no way I'm getting one same reason I haven't got a 10mm yet either.

Awsome round round but again the cost of the .357 Sig diet is what has stopped me but then again if they come out with one in the XDS platform I might be a player on that.
