500rds - 357 Mag Remington HTP 158gr. SJHP Ammo

Remington Ammunition 158 Grain Semi-Jacketed Hollow-Point (SJHP) Ammo Details

Load your favorite .357 Magnum revolver or lever-action rifle with these premium rounds for an optimal personal defense solution. These Remington High Terminal Performance (HTP) brand cartridges are constructed using reloadable brass casings which are nickel-coated for smooth cycling and fitted with non-corrosive Boxer primers. The HTP line is designed with high quality and excellent performance for protection and hunting in mind.

Each cartridge uses a standard pressure charge behind a 158 grain Semi-Jacketed Hollow-Point (SJHP) projectile with a wave design in the jacket right above its cannelure crimp. This style of bullet promotes wide expansion at a variety of velocities while maintaining momentum and preventing jacket separation. The cannelure also prevents bullet setback in a tubular magazine as well as displacement in a cylinder due to recoil.
