The Dillion is the Dillion cause Mike says it is..... The 357 Sig is the 10mm shortened to 40 S&W, necked down for a .355 bullet. Most places a 9mm is a .355 and a 40 S&W is a 10mm Kurtz. Course the 9x25 is what Dillion calls the 9mm Dillon. Which is just the 10mm necked down to 9mm or .355. Still with me?

The round actually comes from Australia and Mike just passed the wand over it and proclamed it to be a 9mm Dillion. Not one of Mike's better moments in my humble opinion. He just came down with Remington-itis. Remington has also "developed" cartridges like this over the years.

Marketing cartridges....an answer to a question that was never asked.
