Longdayjake has a great deal on a 95g soft point .355" bullets that look to have a TC profile that would be well suited to 357sig.
The data is out there so that's no problem. I'm more wondering if those of you who've tried it ran into any functionality issues w such light fast bullets in this cartridge

Not many bullets under 124gr,even TC profiles, acually are suitable for the Sig.I haven't found any personaly but there may be some.They need to be seated deeply enough to be in contact with the entire length of the neck(it needs as much neck tension as possible)plus the bearing surface has to be .02-.03 above the case mouth,not many lighter bullets have that long of surface.

had good luck with berrys plated bullets 100 g rn fr 380. About 8.5 unique at 1400 and it woke up everyone playing with 38 spls and 9mm at the range. load based on sierra book with 95gn bullet and max of 9.3 gn at 1450.

Sorry for the late answer.
Works great in my 229 sport. I run 88 grn rem with AA9 loads from the AA manual and have gone over 1750 fps with them. I won't quote the load but it is published. I call the rounds "screamers" and they are exceptionally accurate!
