'''.357 SIG''' is a pistol cartridge developed in 1994 by Swiss firearms manufacturer SIG Sauer and ammunition manufacturer Federal Cartridge Company. It is essentially a cartridge based on the [[.40 S＆W]], necked down to accept the same 9mm projectiles as [[9x19mm Parabellum]], intended to reproduce [[.357 Magnum]] (from a 4" barrel) performance in semi-automatic pistols. The result is a bottlenecked cartridge delivering very high muzzle velocity even in handguns. Favored by a number of law enforcement agencies in the world, it is primarily a cartridge employed in semi-automatic pistols, however it is starting to see some use in submachine guns, notably with the advent of the '''SIG MPX'''.

The '''.357 SIG''' is a handgun cartridge developed in 1994 by SIGARMS. It is a powerful cartridge intended for semi-automatic handguns. It is considered a medium-tier caliber.

=== Real-life data ===
+
-
The '''.357 SIG''' caliber was invented in 1984 by a joint effort between Swiss company '''SIGARMS''' and American manufacturer '''Federal Cartridge Company'''. This caliber is based on the case of a '''.40 S&amp;W''', necked down to accept a 9 millimeter bullet.
+
-
 
+
-
The name was chosen to highlight what the cartridge is capable of and was intended to do: a caliber that would perform closely from [[.357 Magnum]], yet would be suitable for semi-automatic handguns; the result was the '''.357 SIG'''.
+
-
 
+
-
The weapon was noticeably chosen by several agencies in the United States for use in [[Glock 31]] pistols or .357 SIG variants of the [[SIG Sauer P226]].

This caliber does exactly what it was invented for: It provides similar performance to the [[.357 Magnum]], but is intended for semi-automatic pistols. As such, the .357 SIG becomes an interesting choice of caliber for people who want an alternative to [[.45 ACP]] or [[9x19mm Parabellum]]. As a medium-tier caliber, .357 SIG is the '''19th most powerful caliber of the game'''.

Against unarmored or lightly-armored targets, the '''.357 SIG''''s performance is remarkable - two or three shots suffice to take down such targets. However, as soon as it faces better protected [[Encounters|enemies]], the caliber's performance drops quickly. As such, .357 SIG can be used as a finisher round, or a reliable backup caliber to other, more potent ones in weapons of different Classes, as all weapons in Mazeworld that use this caliber are [[List of Class 3 Weapons|Class 3]] ones.

=== [[Handloading]] information ===

The caliber is quite rare - only two weapons are chambered for this caliber. When bought, [[Gun shop|gun shops]] and [[Weapon shop|weapon shops]] sell .357 SIG in boxes of 50 or 250 rounds, for a price of '''3,5 P$''' per round; which is rather expensive, yet adequate for what this caliber is capable of.
