Who is it that's loading the .357 Sig to 1500 fps? What length barrel?

That's handloaded 9x23 territory.

That is what TNoutdoors crono'd some Underwood ammo at in his testing from a Glock 32 (4" bbl).

I've yet to shoot it.

The 115 gr. Nosler was a Sizzler!

I'm waiting for next week when the NEW DT 147 gr. Bonded Defense
(Gold Dot) load will hit my doorstep!

When in doubt, always Double Tap!

I see 1600 fps. with a 115 gr. bullet. I also see the 38 Spl. loaded down some to a 125 gr. Thanks.

I bought a Sig 226 in .40 Cal and at the same time bought a spare barrel in 357Sig and 1000 rounds of 125 gold dot LE ammo and 1000 rounds of 125gr frangible ammo for practice. I love it. It is my carry gun with the 357Sig Gold dots.

Also it is carried by the Secret Service and Air Marshal's.

Er.... You're practicing with frangibles?

I also bought my P226 in 40 with Bar-Sto 357SIG and 9mm barrels.

Why not I got them cheaper than ball. I use the Gold Dots for SD.
