Bobby James It's definitely a beast of a round. I carry 9mm merely for the extra 2 round capacity. And I keep my 357 sig in the case since it is no longer made in the M&P line. I am very fond of the 357 sig, and it is the most accurate of my M&Ps with me behind the trigger. Thanks for watching.

i personally prefer the fact that the 357sig has a high capacity, is a very flat shooter. the penetrations a big plus. although the draw back would be over penetration and collateral damage. i have been carrying a 357sig for 10 yrs and don't ever see myself changing.

True. The 357 sig was designed for better barrier penetration performance, and I wanted to demonstrate that capability. Hence using fmj rounds. I personally would rather have a bit too much penetration than a bit too little. When using hollowpoints, the difference in penetration between these two calibers is minimal. Thank you for watching!
@CheifDegenerate
@CheifDegenerate 8 жыл бұрын
n300zx931 that's true and false at the same time. most manufacturers today have (for lack of better Terminology) "watered down" the 357 Sig. and have had to slightly redesign the bullet. early hollow points still over penetrated because they tried to make them just like 9mm. but they often clogged giving them minimal expansion and thus over penetration. though many brands these days have tamed them to still beat many barriers and still stop within desired FBI specs using gel. however, these calibers still grossly over penetrate (in comparison to 9mm or 380 auto) when fired into parts of the body with less resistance such as the stomach or into the thigh missing the bone. That has always been and will always be a danger of larger bore calibers and higher pressures. I'm not an advocate for any caliber being better than another. my actual theory is the more diversity out there the better. I am often left only being able to carry a 32 auto, and with Lehigh Defense creating the Xtreme Cavitator i feel more comfortable with it. if 357sig ammo was more affordable, and more plentiful in my area I'd probably find myself carrying my Sig P239 more often. Though I wish Kahr made a 357sig (especially in their K series) I'll settle for what I have. I may have to set out and see the difference of my 357 Sig ammo like he displayed here (my P239 having a shorter barrel may have different results) but I'm going to try between JHP, FMJ, and my Lehigh Defense Xtreme penetrator and Xtreme Defense ammo. time to line up somewhere to go shooting!

+The Penetration Channel i have both calibers and which one i carry on any given day/night depends on whichever one would likely fit specific self defense scenarios that i could possibly encounter while i'm in different enviornments. For example: the times i go to dept. stores, malls or any place where a mass shooting could take placei'll take the 357 SIG or a 10mm. Any other place where i'd likely have to defend against a more personal attack i'd likely have my 9mm, 40 or 45.

I own just about every handgun caliber there is , and although I really like the .357 Sig , I was betting against-it . I didn't think it would make it beyond the 4X4 piece of wood . I thought the "40" would make it over the finish line 'cause of the weight & momentum . I used to like my Glock 31 ; now I LOVE-IT !!!!

the 40 180gr is heavy for caliber, a 155gr would be a more equal comparison. you are comparing a slow and weak 390 energy round with a good fast 500+ energy round. obviously in this scenario the 357 will perform much better. underwood ammo would provide a much better comparison, keeping the bullet weights comparable.

Converting a 40 to 357sig, or versa visa, is in *most cases* just a matter of a barrel swap, seeing 135gr 40 s&w vs 125gr 357sig, and 155gr 40 vs 147gr 357 would really help determine if i need a barrel swap or just a lighter box of ammo! ... and also other guy who will probably be notified in this thread; kinetic energy is literally a product of mass and velocity, sooo......

Great video. You could probably end the whole debate and and use the underwood extreme penetrator in 357 sig. 9 mm 40 caliber in 10 mm that was settled all arguments. And while you’re at it you could try the double tap 357 sig. in the 147 gr full metal jacket flat nose . I think that would be a task that everyone would want to see. Also to keep it uniform you can probably just do multiple sheets of plywood. Just a thought. Anyway great video you’re doing a great job. B

Sorry that the .357 Sig never took off in a wide sustained acceptance by military or police departments. It is one hard hitting fast round that can do the job expected from it. Just about every publicized test that I have seen puts it ahead of 9mm, and just behind 10mm + .357 mags. Ammo is hard to find and expensive but I would trust this cal. in defense of home and family.

Winchester white box is a very weak loading of the 357 sig. If the load does not achieve at least 1450 fps, then the test is not really testing a valid loading of the round. But this was interesting anyway and showed the anticipated results; the sig is a really good hard barrier penetrator.

+Casey Terrence I haven't noticed any wear at all on any of my guns, but they all have a low round count. There is not going to be any real noticable difference in the wear between th .40 and the 357. standard 357 operates at 40,000 psi, and the .40 operates at 35,000 psi so they are both high pressure rounds. most people that shy away from a particular caliber just don't like to stray too far from the sidewalk.

@nil981
@nil981 8 жыл бұрын
if my understanding of ballistics (with relation to bullet design) is correct, than in terms of penetration, the smaller, faster bullet retains its power over longer ranges and penetrates deeper. The slower, larger bullet has more penetration and power at closer ranges but loses its effectiveness at longer ranges. so the .357 sig would be better at penetrating cover due to its higher muzzle velocity, if a police officer is in a place where theres a lot of cover criminals can exploit. The .40 s&w would be better in tighter spaces inside alleys and buildings where its lower velocity and lower penetration are ideal for police officers raiding a building where collateral damage cant happen. so, irrespecitve of ammo cost, i can see a well reasoned case for both the .40 s&w and the .357 sig.

With proper shot placement, the 357 sig definitely has the penetration capability to reach the important stuff. However, I wouldn't go as far as to "recommend" it. If I were to carry a semi auto handgun in brown bear country, it would be a 10mm with a 6" barrel. Thanks for watching.

This is just one of the explicit reasons why the .357 SIG round is the nastiest semi automatic round there is outside custom loads. Then there are always the .50 AE, .460 etc but mass produced semi automatic cartridge the .357 SIG can near do anything. It is what my state police have been using for years now. Stuff sure is expensive though

I bought a Glock 31 which is chambered in , 357 Sig. Dropped $150 for a . 40 barrel. One gun. Two calibers. Just change the barrels. Almost a two for one I love the . 357 Sig in the Glock.

thank you I have a S&W in 40 SW an have been thinking of setting it up to run 357 sig often the bad guys will start crap then drive away I put first though the motor the crap stops here my question is will the 45 colt 250 gr. fmj. at 950 fps' do that job an can the 357 sig stop a running car motor in a pinch ???

I love the .357 sig. But here's the thing. When you are comparing 125 gr to 180 gr of course there is going to be a difference and a huge one at that. For the .40 that is at the very top of the weight for bullets. Not sure what is at the top for the. 357 sig but the. 40 becomes ALOT closer to the .357 sig and a much better comparison when a lighter bullet is used.

James Francis the 147gr. Is pretty much as heavy as the 357 sig goes. But heres my issue, if I were to use a 140gr projectile in the 40, why should I use the heaviest bullet in 357? Should I not also decrease the weight for the 357? 125gr is middle of the road. There are heavier bullets for the 40 such as the 200 gr. So. I went with the 180. You can check out my underwood ammo comparison where I test a 140gr 40 s&w.

How far away from the target were you? I have never heard of a projectile breaking up before impact. If you were extremely close, maybe it was some unburned powder stippling the paper.
