Which article are you evaluating
The .357 Magnum article under the c-class firearms tab.

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I chose this article as I own a magnum myself and do find it to be a reliable handgun for various situations. From its maintenance to performance compared to other handguns that I own. But more importantly the ammunition used can be chambered into multiple firearms. That being the .357 magnum.

Evaluate the article
The articles lead is done well in my view. As it gives the brief description of the .357 magnum while also mentioning the creators of the firearm ammunition. The content mixes well with its tone and balance as this is an article talking about the firearm itself so it gives off a tone of reading a detailed description of an item. No selling points, just the information that is known of the ammunition and its uses since the creation in 1935. As seen through its talk page, the article has had a few bumps in its sources but multiple individuals have vetted the inaccuracy's from the article in a timely fashion. The current articles are up to date with the most current of information. While the organization has been done well. With the information placed in understandable places such as history of the ammunition, its performance and its off shoot comparisons. The images used the article may give the unexperienced viewer a bit of confusion if they were looking for the .357 magnum revolver as mentioned in the talk chat, but as also seen in the chat in its most recent discussion two years ago a brief discussion also found the cause as to why that was and promptly removed it as to make the article easier to understand that this is for the ammunition. Overall I enjoyed this article and glad to see that there is still what I would consider recent activity for an ammunition type that is nearly one hundred years old. The article can be improved in the lead to firmly hammer that this is the ammunition's so that even novice viewers are aware. This is a well developed article.
