[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 3083803, member: 122164"] I think that I read that the FBI found that a 357 with a 125g HP at 1250 fps was super effective, if not the most effective, which is very slow Velocity in a 357 Mag. The 38 Special runs the 125's at 1000 fps. If my memory is correct, slowing the round down to 1250 in the 357 Mag, allowed the bullet to NOT blow through the body. More input is needed on this fps issue as I shot my 125's in 357 Mags at 1700+fps. Also, with multiple perps to deal with, having more ammo in the magazine is now preferred. With High quality Hollow Points, Caliber is almost a moot issue as the the guy that puts the first round on target will usually win the gun fight. [/QUOTE]
