Heavy 357 Sig. Low Flash Pistol and Handgun Ammo
125 gr. Jacketed Hollow Point - (1,425fps/M.E. 564 ft. lbs.)
20 Round Box

ITEM 25A

Because you requested it, Buffalo Bore is now producing two full power 357 Sig. loads. These loads are full power 357 Sig. Not the watered down stuff that other factories are already producing. Why is it that a new cartridge gets developed with touted ballistics in the media, only to have the ammo manufacturers "water" it down after a few years on the market? (The same thing happened with the original 10MM) The 357 Sig. was designed to blast a 125gr. bullet at 1,425 FPS out of a four inch carry gun barrel. (Not a much longer test barrel) So, that is what both our loadings do.

We use flash suppressed powder so that you won't be blinded by your own gunfire should you be required to drop the hammer in low light. Since over 90% of civilian shootings in America happen in low light, flash suppressed ammunition is a huge tactical advantage.

Item 25A utilizes the 125gr. Jacketed Hollow Point bullet. It is designed to open radically and penetrate roughly 12 to 14 inches in human tissue. Note my velocities from my real world pistol, (not a test barrel) below.

?  1,430 fps (567 ft. lbs.) -- Sig. Mod. 229, 4-inch barrel 

Item 25B utilizes a 124gr. FMJ flat nose bullet at 1,425 fps. This bullet will smash through typical stick frame walls, car doors and a bears skull or shoulder bones. It is designed for those who need deep penetration. It should penetrate 24+ inches in human tissue. If I were carrying a 357 Sig. for defense, I would carry my pistol with our 125gr. JHC (jacketed hollow cavity) loaded in the chamber and the top 4 or 5 rounds in the magazine. The remaining rounds in the magazine would be these FMJ flat nose loads. Why? After the first few rounds are fired in a fight, most opponents will be dead or behind cover. The FMJ flat nose loads will penetrate many types of cover that would stop a hollow nose bullet. Note my velocities, from my real world pistol, (not a test barrel) below.

?  1,433 fps (575 ft. lbs.) -- Sig. Mod. 229, 4-inch barrel

I tested some of the Buffalo Bore "Heavy" .357 Sig JHP ammo out of my new Storm Lake converted Glock 22 and compared it to both remanufactured "range ammo" as well as "the hottest of the hot" stuff.
BB was most accurate by far, astonishingly so. I didn't measure velocity, but the recoil was very manageable. Combined with low muzzle flash and super accuracy this is my new carry load. It's high quality ammunition so to me it's well worth the price.

This is the real deal. Picked some up from Cabela's of all places to find it. Robust and powerful, well manufactured ammunition. Highly recommended ammo. Same goes for .357 SIG cartridge itself, it is something special.

I finally got a chronograph for my birthday and tested these rounds. Out of my glock 32 at 5 feet from the muzzle I get consistant velocity of 1470 F.P.S. I wont carry anything besides buffalo bore in my defensive pistols!

Excellent shooting from my Glock 32. Low flash as promised and great expansion in the phone books I have tested.

just received my order for these on 11/18/09 and shot them through my Glock 32 today....

these rounds are EXCELLENT.....they bring out what the 357 SIG was meant to be, a true "Magnum".....this is my new carry load....

very well made cartridge, zero malfunctions, low muzzle blast and a lot more "OOMPH" than watered down factory loads.....

will be using/buying more of this fine load from BB

I am an avid handgun shooter and reloader. I always chronograph my own loads and the factory ammo that I use for sefl-defense. Buffalo Bore is the ONLY .357 Sig ammo that actually perfroms as advertised. I actually consistenly get 1450 fps out of my 3.5" barrel USPc. I have shot and tested everything else on the market in this gun and all others perform way below their adverstised velocities. Not only is Buffalo Bore .357 Sig the only factory ammo that performs as advertised, but it is also MUCH more consistent. Buffalo Bore is now the only ammo that I know I can trust for high performance and to do what it says it will do.
