.357 Magnum refers to the cartridge in that caliber. SOME of those cartridges are loaded with a full metal jacketed bullet- meaning that the lead core of the bullet is completely surrounded by jacketing metal- usually an alloy of copper and other metals.

What is a gilded metal-jacket mean?
gilded metal jacket (GMJ) is basically the same as full metal jacket (FMJ) in that it provides a metal casing on a bullet core. The difference in the two metal jackets is the method of application. The full metal jacket (FMJ) is a casing that is applied to the core while the gilded metal jacket (GMJ) is plated directly on the core. For all intents and purposes, the GMJ rounds perform the same as FMJ rounds, but are less costly to manufacture, and therefore cost less to buy.
