[QUOTE="udiablo, post: 849409, member: 5748"] Not really much new, including the .357Sig. If you are interested in it, get your hands on the April2009 Handloader and read Charles Petty's article about it. He mentions again that some departments and agencies do not use the .45ACP due to the recoil. Then reports some "blind" evaluations that determined the .357Sig was louder and recoiled more than the .45ACP. However, your department can get "reduced loads" for the .357Sig (with balistics like a +P+.38Special). How good does that sound? Bit of history included the old bottleneck pistol cartridges like the .30 Mauser, the 7mm and 8mm Nambu, and the 10mmCentaur. Not exactly a new idea, is it? Notice how well all of those old bottleneck pistol cartridges caught on? Pretty amazing what a little marketing hype can do. [/QUOTE]
