Clear Impact Gun: 357 Magnum Cartridge From A S&W Snub Nose Revolver
This video demonstrates the penetration capabilities of the .357 Magnum cartridge, specifically Hornady 158-grain XTP, fired from a Smith & Wesson Model 640 snub-nose revolver. The test involved shooting through a whitetail deer shoulder blade and four layers of motorcycle jacket leather, highlighting the cartridge's effectiveness for defensive scenarios against animals due to its deep penetration, even when fired from a short barrel. The projectile did not significantly deform, indicating its suitability for penetrating barriers and delivering energy.
