1000 Rounds of 125gr JHP .357 Mag Ammo by PMC

Although the creation of the .357 Magnum was technically the result of a collaborative effort, the lion’s share of the work was done by none other than renowned outdoorsman and handloader Elmer Keith. Keith’s work handloading ammunition was responsible for a number of the powerful rounds so many gun owners enjoy today, and this is one of the most popular. One important contribution Keith made was the use of his Keith bullet, which has a large, flat meplat for greater energy transfer on impact and, thus, better stopping power. Although the final .357 Magnum design slightly altered the Keith bullet the gist remains the same, and the overall power of the round stands.

At 125 grain these are somewhat light for the cartridge size. At this weight these rounds are capable of fantastic speeds while still heavy enough to impact targets with major force. These are Jacketed Hollow Point, or JHP, rounds and begin to expand at the moment of impact. The jackets on the bullets control expansion, slowing it down and allowing for deeper penetration and a more devastating wound cavity overall. Each of these rounds delivers a muzzle velocity of 1450 feet per second and a muzzle energy of 584 foot-pounds. This ammunition was made by PMC for self-defense purposes.

There are 1000 defense rounds in this case of PMC ammunition. That’s enough ammunition to give you significant time working on improving your shot placement and accuracy with enough left over to keep your .357 Magnum loaded and ready for personal protection. Even better, these are virgin brass cases with boxer primer, so you can collect your spent brass, reload it, and get even more trigger time in. PMC is a subsidiary of the Poongsan Corporation, a company that was founded decades ago with the goal of providing the South Korean military with their ammunition so they wouldn’t need to go to outside sources. All production takes place at their factories in Angnang and Dongrae, South Korea. If you want to see what your .357 Magnum can really do, order now, and get to shooting.

The 9mm has quickly become the most popular semi-auto caliber for self-defense. In addition it’s spent years as the most common standard issue caliber for law enforcement and enjoyed a number of years as the choice for the U.S. Army as well in the form of the Beretta M9. There are several reasons for its popularity from its manageable recoil to its larger-capacity magazines to its affordable cost, and if you own one, chances are good it’s for self-defense. And if you use yours for protection, you’d better be proficient in its use, which means you need ammunition.

At 115 grain these are considered lightweight rounds for the 9mm. Being lighter means they produce less felt recoil and are able to travel down-range at higher speeds, among other things. These are Full Metal Jacket, or FMJ, rounds and as such do not expand on impact. FMJ rounds simply strike their targets, penetrate, and keep traveling. These rounds deliver a muzzle velocity of 1180 feet per second and a muzzle energy of 386 foot-pounds. This ammunition is ideal for target practice, tactical training, and plinking.

There are 350 target rounds in this box of Independence ammunition. That’s enough ammunition to give your gun a good meal and markedly improve your shot placement and accuracy. It’s even enough to work on drawing from your holster and firing, shooting prone and kneeling, and firing with your weaker hand. The training possibilities are endless. And because these are new production, brass-cased, boxer-primed rounds, they can be reloaded for even more range time. Independence ammunition is a subsidiary of ATK, a massive company that specializes in weapons of all kinds. Production takes place in the United States and meets SAAMI specifications. If you have a 9mm and want some trigger time, get your order in. What are you waiting for?
