In-game description
A .357 Magnum (9x33mm R) Hollow Point cartridge with a 9 gram bullet made of solid copper in a brass case; intended for hunting and home defense, produced by Smith & Wesson. The bullet in this cartridge has an outstanding stopping power effect thanks to its exceptional ability to expand upon impact, as well as being able to cause severe adverse effects on the target after impact. Likewise, its design increases its penetration capabilities against some models of basic ballistic body protection.
Against which armor
Penetration 18 is above the resistance of class 1 armor (10) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 2, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
