Description
The 357 Magnum is no wimp. That said, it’s hardly the strongest revolver cartridge you could choose for hunting or defense against dangerous beasts. If you want maximum stopping power out of your 357 Mag – without going above standard chamber pressure – then Grizzly Cartridge Company has your number.
rThis cartridge is loaded with a 200 grain hard cast wide long nose gas check projectile. A hard cast bullet is primarily made of lead, but is also alloyed with other metals that make it extremely hard. That’s why it won’t undergo significant deformation as it tunnels through its target, which assures deeper penetration. The bullet’s wide long nose profile is designed to inflict massive trauma without any need for expansion that could have led to too shallow a wound cavity to reach the quarry’s vitals. The bullet’s gas check is a sort of gasket that promotes more efficient ignition, which is part of the reason why this round’s muzzle velocity is impressively high at 1,300 fps.
rIn short, a hard cast WLNGC bullet is precisely the bullet you want when the deepest possible penetration is desired. Please take care that this ammo isn’t designed for defense against human threats. The bullet won’t do its recipient any favors, but it is nearly certain to pass clean through a person where it can jeopardize innocent bystanders.
