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.

  • Pocket Carry Guy said:

    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.

  • Victor said:

    Great round to use at the range. Great deal on the 50 thanks to Ammo.com

  • Cody said:

    Couldn't ask for a better round

  • William said:

    The ammo was delivered 2 days ahead of schedule!! Great quality and top notch customer service. All ammo needs for me 380, 9mm 45 auto, 12 gauge and 7.65 will always be purchased here.

  • William said:

    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.
