Description

PMC Bronze ammunition in .357 Magnum (brand part no. 357A) is a range-day handgun load built for consistent function magazine after magazine. PMC 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 soft point (JSP) design, matched to the .357 Magnum platform shooters already run. In our handgun ammunition lineup, this is the PMC load built for that job.
