Product Overview
Ammo Inc's .380 Auto load hits the sweet spot for compact carry pistols, delivering controlled recoil while maintaining the velocity needed for reliable expansion. The 100-grain TMC (Total Metal Coating) projectile provides the same flight characteristics as defensive hollow points, making this an ideal practice round if you carry similar-weight self-defense ammunition. When you're putting hundreds of rounds downrange to master that subcompact .380, the brass casing and precise TMC construction ensure consistent feeding without the premium price of defensive loads.
The 890 fps velocity strikes a practical balance - fast enough to cycle reliably in today's popular micro-pistols like the Ruger LCP or Sig P238, but not so hot that it becomes unpleasant during extended range sessions. If you're training for defensive scenarios, this round's 176 ft-lbs of energy closely mirrors common defensive loads, giving you authentic recoil feedback without compromising your wallet. The TMC coating reduces barrel fouling compared to standard FMJ, meaning less cleaning time and more shooting time between maintenance.
When precision matters during your practice sessions, this round's clean-burning powder and consistent brass casing provide the mechanical accuracy needed for drills beyond 15 yards. While many .380 practice loads cut corners to reduce costs, Ammo Inc's attention to detail with their signature line makes this a standout choice for serious shooters who understand that quality range time translates directly to real-world proficiency.
- Total Metal Coating (TMC) reduces lead exposure during indoor practice sessions
- Consistent primer depth and seating improves feeding reliability
- Tight quality control on bullet weight variance (±0.5 grains)
- Premium pricing compared to standard FMJ options
- May not be cost-effective for high-volume training
