Projectile construction

This is a a solid copper design intended for subsonic velocities, where conventional lead hollow points typically fail to open.

The number on the box tells you mass, not behaviour. Jacket design, alloy and geometry are what determine the wound channel.

What 380ACP is good at

Limited case capacity means bullet construction does most of the work.

Muzzle velocity for .380 ACP typically runs 900 to 1,000 fps, from a compact pistol platform with a 1:16 twist. Published figures are a starting point, not a specification; chronograph your own rifle before you trust a number.

Where this weight sits

At 95 grain this is on the lighter side for .380 ACP. Lighter bullets leave the muzzle faster and shoot flatter, which helps on smaller targets and at distance, but they bleed velocity sooner and depend more on impact speed to do their job.

Cost per round

20 rounds at $29.99 works out at $1.499 per round. A box this size suits load development, hunting stock and defensive carry rather than high volume practice.

Ordering and compliance

Shipping rules for ammunition vary by state and sometimes by city. Some destinations require a licence, an approved recipient, or refuse delivery entirely. Check before you order rather than after. See our shipping and delivery page for the current detail.

Intended use

Before buying, be honest about the use case. This suits suppressed shooting, where staying under the sound barrier is the whole point and bullet design has to compensate for low velocity.

Barrel length and velocity

Barrel length changes the numbers. Short barrels give up velocity that light bullets in particular depend on, so a load that performs from 20 inches may disappoint from 16. For .380 ACP specifically, expect 900 to 1,000 fps as the published band and treat your own chronograph as the authority.

How to store this

Storage is simple: stable temperature, low humidity, original packaging where possible. Attics and car boots are the two places that quietly ruin ammunition.

How .380 ACP compares

Against 9mm it gives up meaningful energy in exchange for smaller, lighter pistols. Bullet construction matters more here than in any other common defensive cartridge.

Pick the cartridge that fits the shooting you actually do, not the shooting you read about.

How this is stored

Every load leaving here is factory ammunition from the manufacturer, not repackaged or remanufactured stock. Lots are stored indoors at stable temperature and packed so bullet tips are not knocking against each other in transit.

A word if you are stocking up: test before you commit. Buying a case of a load your rifle dislikes is an expensive way to learn about harmonics.

Frequently asked questions

What platform suits .380 ACP?

A compact pistol with a 1:16 twist is the usual setup. Limited case capacity means bullet construction does most of the work.

How fast does .380 ACP run?

Around 900 to 1,000 fps at the muzzle, though your barrel will give you its own number.

Is the solid copper subsonic projectile suitable for what I am shooting?

It is a a solid copper design intended for subsonic velocities, where conventional lead hollow points typically fail to open. Match that against your intended use before buying.

Why choose 95 grain?

Weight sets the trade between velocity and momentum. 95 grain is one point on that curve; the right pick depends on your barrel, your distance and your target rather than on the number itself.

What is in the pack?

20 rounds at $29.99, which is $1.499 per round.

Do you actually have this in stock?

Yes, this is held stock rather than drop shipped, and the listing comes down when it sells out.

Do I need a licence to buy this?

In most of the country no, but some states and cities require a licence or an approved recipient for ammunition. The shipping page has the detail.

Do you offer bulk pricing?

Larger pack sizes carry a lower cost per round, which is listed on each product page so you can compare directly rather than doing the arithmetic yourself.

How should I compare loads?

Compare cost per round rather than box price, and compare projectile construction rather than grain weight. Those two habits will steer you right more often than brand loyalty.

How is this stored before it ships?

Indoors at stable temperature, rotated oldest first, and packed so cartridges do not move in transit.
