In the FS ammo is harder too find and brass/reloading info is nonexistent. I have even been asked if the ammo looks like 357 magnum.

Re: Any of you guys shoot .357 SIG
Yup, I shoot a SIG P229 and a Glock 31 in 357Sig. I also reload extensively. A couple of my mates have recently come over to the dark side and also shoot it. The force is strong in this one.
Ammo is available, you need to keep your eye out and buy when it comes around. Contact Nic Yale or dave Sheer, or one of the bigger importers for a headsup when it lands. Brass is also available, not common, but available. I recently bought 5400 once fired cases locally for a similar price to 9mm once fireds.
Some reloading data is available in the reloading forum, and we are trying to get a database going using domestic powders. Reloading is not as easy as straight walled pistol, but is not that challenging. The caliber does allow for some interesting experimentation.
Its not a +P+ 9mm, or a 40 clone. It's a flat shooting, extremely accurate, hyperfast round that exhibits very impressive down range results. Try it and you will buy it.
