It never reached the popularity hoped by the designers.Д¤. It was too hot for police with the Magnum loadings, and did not bring much to the table with the milder lead SWC loads. That is a problem with this fine old caliber. Penetration was actually excessive with the bullets tried, as they were not well-designed. Very accurate, and the recoil is not too bad.Дў. It penetrated all 5 jugs for 15 inches of penetration in BG and went through the back of the waterbox.ДЎ. We only had 5 jugs of water left and hoped it would stop the bullet. LetвЂ™s try a mild load of about 6 grains of 231 behind a 215 grain lead SWC out of my Blackhawk. If they didnвЂ™t expand, penetration could be excessive. These rounds showed a problem with this round as it was introducedвЂ¦ the bullets available were of poor construction and were not reliable in expansion. It penetrated 7 jugs for about 21 inches of penetration in BG, but the bullet did not expand much at all. We decided to try a JHP that was loaded вЂњdownвЂќ just a bit. HereвЂ™s all of the bullet that we could recover. We were amazed that the bullet penetrated through nine jugs of water for 27+ inches of penetration into BG.

Lighter loads could be used that shot a lead Semi-Wadcutter bullet of approximately 200 grains driven to around 1,000 fps, but this made the pistol less effective than the. The idea of a more powerful pistol for police officers was a well-intended idea, but most officers were unable to handle the heavy recoil generated with full-power loads in these pistols. My buddy Tman has a fine example of the S&W Model 57 with a 6 inch barrel. This was made when folks at S&W took pride in their pistols. It is a beautiful pistol, with bluing that looks a foot deep. You can also note the Speed Loaders, which made loading the pistols much faster. It is a fine piece of work, in and of itself. Smith & Wesson made a wooden box for their pistol. S&W originally made an expensive and beautiful model called the S&W Model 57.ДЄ cheaper version of the pistol, called the Model 58, was also made and marketed for police officers. It was originally intended for the patrol officer, in the days when the revolver ruled.
