Deep Dive
Overview
Hornady Custom 357 Sig ammunition is crafted for individuals who prioritize personal safety and self-defense. The 147-grain XTP jacketed hollow point bullet is specifically designed to deliver controlled and uniform expansion while achieving deep penetration. This ensures that the bullet performs optimally in a self-defense situation, penetrating barriers if necessary while inflicting maximum damage to stop a threat quickly.
History and Development
The Hornady Custom line of ammunition represents decades of innovation in bullet technology.
