NEW BUFFALO BORE APPAREL

Heavy 357 Sig. Low Flash Pistol and Handgun Ammo
125 gr. FMJ-FN - (1,425 fps/M.E. 564 ft. lbs.)
20 Round Box
ITEM 25B
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 your own gunfire won't blind you 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 125gr. FMJ flat nose bullet at 1,425 fps. This bullet will smash through typical stick frame walls, car doors, and a bear's 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
