  • The .357 Magnum is a revolver cartridge introduced by Smith & Wesson in 1935. It is a high-powered cartridge that is based on the .38 Special cartridge, but with a longer case and a higher powder charge. The .357 Magnum cartridge can be fired from a revolver with a cylinder chambered for .357 Magnum or .38 Special. It is commonly used for hunting, self-defense, and target shooting due to its high velocity and accuracy. The .357 Magnum has become one of the most popular revolver cartridges in the world and is still widely used today.
