357 Mag 125gr DPX

Description

.357 Mag 125gr DPX – Barrier-Blind Defense. Proven Expansion.

In self-defense, there’s no room for guesswork. You need a round that performs every time—no matter what’s in the way. COR®BON’s .357 Mag 125gr DPX is designed for that exact purpose, delivering rapid expansion, deep penetration, and total weight retention—even through glass, steel, and other hard barriers.

This load features our proven DPX® bullet, machined from a 100% solid copper slug. Unlike traditional hollow points that rely on velocity alone, the DPX is engineered for controlled, mechanical expansion. Six sharp petals unfold on impact, doubling the bullet’s diameter and creating a wide, permanent crush cavity. Internal serration cuts ensure this expansion happens consistently—even through clothing or intermediate barriers.

During FBI protocol testing, this round achieved 12–18 inches of soft tissue penetration after passing through four layers of denim. In ballistic gel, the recovered bullets retained 100% of their original weight and shape. That means you’re getting consistent terminal performance, round after round, with no fragmentation or deviation.

At 1300 feet per second and 469 foot-pounds of energy (from a 4-inch test barrel), COR®BON’s .357 Mag 125gr DPX delivers serious stopping power in both revolvers and lever-action platforms. Additionally, it’s lead-free and fully California compliant—making it a smart choice for both carry and range use in restricted environments.

Whether you’re defending your home or carrying concealed, this load offers tactical reliability backed by real-world results. When your life depends on it, trust the round that redefined what a defensive handgun bullet can do.
