357 mag doesn't provide that much different wound than a 9 mm.


Maybe if the 357 is using fully jacketed bullets but the heavier loaded semi-jacketed soft lead hollow points are going to leave a considerably larger wound cavity. Even +P+ 9mm isn't approaching the velocity of a .357 Mag loaded for serious self-defense use.

Perhaps but all the firearm experts I have talked with advise that the extra velocity of the .357 magnum does not out perform the extra rounds afforded by a 9 mm or a .40 cal.
