The .357 Sig is a cartridge that I'm still somewhat unfamiliar with. I recently purchased a .357 Sig barrel for my M&P40c along with 100 rounds of .357 Sig Winchester Ranger JHPs.
A buddy, who is also unfamiliar with the .357 Sig, suggested that perhaps the .357 Sig from a 3.5" barrel of a compact handgun roughly equals the performance of a 9mm +P+ from a larger pistol with a duty-length barrel.
Does this sound around right? Will a 125gr .357 Sig Winchester Ranger (RA357SIGT) from my M&P40c mirror the performance of the 127gr 9mm +P+ Winchester Ranger (RA9TA) from a G17 or Beretta 92?
I've found the 165gr Winchester Bonded Ranger (RA40BA) works wonderfully well from my M&P40c and plan to use it for carry. However, if my Storm Lake .357 Sig conversion barrel proves just as accurate, I may use the .357 Sig for hiking.
Thanks in advance.
