Description
Fiocchi .357 Magnum ammunition (brand part no. 357D) loads a light 125-grain semi-jacketed hollow point bullet in a brass case, pairing .357 Magnum’s naturally high velocity with a bullet weight built to expand fast and hit hard at typical defensive engagement distances. The semi-jacketed design leaves more lead exposed at the nose than a fully jacketed hollow point, letting the hollow cavity open aggressively on impact for rapid energy transfer. At 125 grains, this is a lighter-than-standard .357 Magnum weight, and that reduced mass lets the round reach genuinely high velocity, driving faster, more violent expansion than a heavier bullet at the same pressure. For .357 Magnum shooters who want a fast-expanding defensive or hunting load, this handgun ammunition from Fiocchi is built for exactly that.
