Frequently Asked Questions
.357 Magnum revolvers for sale

Is a .357 more powerful than a 9mm?

Yes. .357 Magnum generates roughly 600 ft-lbs of muzzle energy versus 9mm's approximately 340 ft-lbs, making it significantly more powerful. The tradeoff is that 9mm allows faster follow-up shots and higher magazine capacity in semi-automatic pistols, while .357 is typically chambered in revolvers.

How effective is 357 on deer?

.357 Magnum is effective on deer when fired from a rifle-length barrel, which generates enough velocity for clean kills past 200 yards. Revolvers work but limit range further. Use quality expanding bullets designed for the cartridge—some handgun loads fragment at rifle velocities, reducing penetration and effectiveness.

Should I get a 38 or 357?

.357 Magnum revolvers fire both .357 and .38 Special loads, giving you flexibility. .357 delivers roughly twice the power for hunting and defense. .38 Special offers softer recoil, faster follow-ups, and lower cost for practice. Buy a .357 revolver if you want one gun handling both; choose .38 if recoil or budget matters most.

Does 357 kick harder than 9mm?

Yes. .357 Magnum produces roughly 10 ft-lbs of recoil versus 4.5 ft-lbs for 9mm, making it noticeably snappier. The larger case holds more powder, generating about 30 percent higher velocity and more energy downrange. Revolvers also lack a slide to absorb recoil, increasing felt kick compared to semi-auto 9mm pistols.

Is .357 Magnum too powerful for self-defense?

No. .357 Magnum is widely considered viable for self-defense. It delivers reliable terminal performance with modern hollow-point loads. Primary drawbacks are heavier recoil than 9mm and a louder report. Suitability depends on your ability to handle recoil and your commitment to regular practice.

What is the shelf life of .357 Magnum ammo?

Properly stored .357 Magnum ammunition can remain reliable for decades. Primers are the most vulnerable component and may degrade first. For self-defense use, rotating stock every few years is reasonable. The key factors are keeping rounds cool, dry, and away from temperature extremes.

How much does a 357 Magnum typically cost?

.357 Magnum revolvers typically range from $380 to over $1,400. Budget options like the Taurus 605 start around $380, mid-range Smith & Wesson models run $600–$900, and premium Colt Pythons exceed $1,400. The average across most listings falls near $650.

Can you shoot 38 Special out of any 357 Magnum?

Yes, .357 Magnum revolvers safely fire .38 Special cartridges. The .357 chamber is slightly longer, so .38 Special rounds fit and function reliably. The reverse is not true—never fire .357 Magnum in a .38 Special revolver, as it risks dangerous pressure levels. Most .357 revolvers are marketed for both cartridges.
