Re: Carrying target ammo or hollow point?

In the .380, many of the hollow points on the market will not penetrate the 12 inches minimum as mandated by FBI Protocol.

A good source of .380 ammunition tests is https://www.luckygunner.com/labs/self-d ... ts/#380ACP

Try some of the deeper penetrating rounds in your gun to check for feed reliability. If your handgun will not feed JHPs, try Flat Point FMJs. If those don't work, try Round Nose FMJs.

Sometimes actually shooting your handgun with different loads is the only 100% way to know what works best.

Just my .02,
