The .357 Magnum revolutionized handgun ballistics when it was introduced in 1934. Delivering significantly more energy than the .38 Special from which it was derived, the .357 Mag remains one of the most effective self-defense and hunting handgun cartridges available. Revolvers chambered in .357 can also fire .38 Special for practice.
