Overview
The Civil Defense Lead Free .357 Magnum ammo features very deep hollow-points. When striking flesh, these bullets rapidly expand creating a large wound channel. The petals of the hollow-point tend to shear off and form their own wound tracks, causing further exsanguination. The central part of the bullet continues to penetrate deeper into the body – typically to a distance of 12” – 14” in ballistic gelatin. A penetration depth of 12” in ballistic gelatin is the arbitrary minimum distance the FBI determined was suitable for the needs of its agents. It offers a lot of the things that people want such as reliability, penetration and massive wounding.
