It's debatable whether the .357 Sig gives you anything that the .40S&W or a hot 9mm round doesn't...

hickok45 has a nice video on youtube on the glock in 357 sig
Meh, 9mm can easily be loaded to reach 1250fps with 125gr bullet and .40 can push 135gr at 1300 for even more energy.No it is not. The .357 SIG gives you more FPS and FT/LBS than either the .40 or 'hot' 9mm (not even close).
None of those can hit 1350 FPS or 520 FT/LBS.![]()

If I want more power I'll just grab my 10mm![]()

Barrels are available directly from both Storm Lake and Lone Wolf.

That statement comes from those that don't want or can't shoot the .357 SIG and need to come up with an excuse not to.
..."my .40 is good enough" or..."My 9mm is cheaper...."

I'd personally like to know where to get these magical non-"+P" 115-gr 9mm Speers that seem to go 200 fps over what they're actually advertised to do, and have an uncanny resemblence to the specs for the 115-gr .327 Federal Magnum Speer load....Out of my Glock 17, Speer 115gr. GDHP's average 1372fps and 481 ft/lbs of energy. Close enough to .357 Sig ballistics to me.
Out of my Glock 22, a Federal 155gr. JHP is going 1230 fps with over 500 ft/lbs of energy. Use a Corbon load at 135gr. at 1350fps and well over 500 ft/lbs of energy.
.357 Sig has nothing on 9mm or .40S&W when using the right rounds.
