Overview of 380 ACP Ammo

380 ACP is a popular handgun cartridge known for its ease of carrying and use in self-defense. With a variety of small, lightweight pistols chambered in this caliber, its mild recoil and minimal muzzle blast make it a favorite among concealed carriers, police officers needing a backup gun, and casual target shooters.

Typical 380 ammo features an 85-95 grain bullet, .355 inch in diameter, and a 0.984 inch cartridge length. Despite fluctuating popularity over the last century, opinions on 380 ammo remain polarized, with shooters either loving or hating it, leaving little room for middle-ground discussion.

As demand for 380 ammo continues to grow, shooters appreciate its balance of manageable recoil, compact size, and reliable performance.

380 Ammo Ballistics: Chart of Average 380 ACP Ballistics

For shooters wanting an in-depth breakdown of velocity, energy, and trajectory, see our complete guide to 380 ballistics.

Since 380 ammo is often used for personal protection and self defense, the ballistics of the cartridges chosen greatly impact its performance. When people buy 380 ammo for self defense, they should look for a cartridge that penetrates at least 12 to 18 inches into ballistics gel, and expands to at least .35 caliber on impact.

Remember, 380 shells are a low-powered round, so ammo selection, especially when buying bulk 380 ACP ammo, is vital to performance standards.

Note: This information comes from the manufacturer and is for informational purposes only. The actual ballistics obtained with your firearm can vary considerably from the advertised ballistics. Also, ballistics can vary from lot to lot with the same brand and type load.

The ammo is well priced and I have had no jams in a bodyguard 2.0 which is a small pistol. The gun is relatively clean after use, it uses the bodyguard 2.0's 2 section ramp flawlessly. The ammunition is accurate and is good for a self defense gun. I will buy again.

I purchased 100 rounds of Blazer 380 with aluminum casing because the brass was out of stock. My bodyguard 2.0 won't feed a round of it at all. I tested with another BG2 and no problem so something unique with my pistol I guess. I prefer brass and will stick with brass from now on.

The box of this ammo I used was received as a gift from my brother for my 60th birthday. Normally, I wouldn't have purchased it myself, but being it was a gift, I used it for target practice and the occasional magazine of personal defense. The ammo functioned pretty much flawlessly in my personal Ruger LCP, but gave some feeding problems in a friends Ruger LCP due to it being a "flat point", so there is reason to be aware of possible feeding problems in some firearms. In my personal opinion, there are better options for practice, and definitely better options for concealed carry defensive ammo.
Mike said:
Very good ammo. Brass ammo worked very well, no jams, or misfires.

I am impressed with ammo.com! I have a variety of calibers and now that I have experience with ammo.com, I know i can save both time and $$ shopping here. The only limiting factor is my wife lol. Justifying buying another gun is an easy skill to acquire and hone to perfection, to keep her on her toes, justifying the ammo first, is the alternative method to starting the gun itself - ammo.com is my new favorite place to hone my skills lol! Try them! You'll like em. A friendly bunch and gladly honored my request to avoid the dog killing FedEx shipping method. They have my business!! Good, accurate ammo, great prices, friendly staff, what more could an ammosexual redneck ask for?

This ammo performed well in all of our pistols. While some ammo wouldn’t feed in the P365, this ammo ran through the Walther PK380, Sig P238 and Sig P365 without any failures.

I used this ammo to break-in a new 380 semi auto, and it did the job. I put the first 50 rounds through the weapon and had 2 FTF's. The receiver failed to seat fully causing a miss fire. I tapped it forward and it fired. By the time I fired all 100 rounds, the weapon worked perfect. Worked great for me.

I ran 60 of these as part of my breaking in a new 2.0. They all fed, fired and extracted according to plan. I’ve run a mix of PMC, WWB, and Federal testing the new pistol for absolute reliability. I’ve had 100% on everything tested during the 250 round break in which is promising. I plan on settling for Critical Defense and maybe Lawman ball ammo for my carry loads

Shot 20 rounds of the Black Hills 380 ACP ammo with my S&W Bodyguard 2.0. No jams , bigger holes on the paper target than other 380 ammo I have tried.
DK said:
Was considering the Honey Badger 65 grain for my S&W 380. It's a quality loaded ammo and impacts a one inch expansion on the target at 7 meters. I just couldn't shoot consistently accurate with it so chose another brand for my go to ammo for this gun. Others may not have this experience with it though.
Blorg said:
These cycle well in a PPK/s stainless. Not all ammo does. Have seen the ballistics on these Honey Badger rounds and was impressed. As you know, a 380 is a nice conceal or backup gun but really the minimum in the way of stopping power. Noticed these bullets for the 380, as opposed to other Honey Badger calibers, have the machined flutes sharpened to a razor's edge. I know why they did that. ;-o
Rudy said:
Easy to order. Delivered onmtime. Good value.
Shot Dr. said:
For years, and I being a shooter for 50 yrs, .380 ammo has traditionally been scorned after just a few bad reviews and YouTube videos. I’d suggest those folks, respectfully speaking, learn to shoot accurately and with consistently maintaining all the fundamentals. Honey Badger is an excellent fill of powder and performance. It’s the only ammo I carry in my Glock 42 and Walther PPK/S .380.
Gene said:
Great personal defence round. Feeds well. Beretta, Colt and Smith concealed carry.
