PPU backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 158 gr bullet with a jacketed hollow point (JHP) design, matched to the .357 Magnum platform shooters already run. In our handgun ammunition lineup, this is the PPU load built for that job.
