Product Overview
Federal Range and Target 95-grain FMJ is a full metal jacket .380 Auto load made for target shooting. The bullet is plain jacketed ball. At 980 fps it makes 203 ft-lbs, the fastest and most energetic of the loads compared.
Zeroed at 25 yards, it is 2.0 inches low at 50. Its estimated recoil of 2.1 ft-lbs in a compact pistol is about 15 percent above PMC Bronze 90-grain.
If you're cross-shopping, Aguila 95-grain FMJ and Armscor 95-grain FMJ are both 35 fps slower with 15 ft-lbs less at the muzzle. PMC Bronze 90-grain is the softest of the loads compared, at 961 fps from a lighter bullet.
- Still carrying 171 ft-lbs at 50 yards, the most of the loads compared
- A full jacket over the nose, for ranges that restrict exposed-lead bullets
- Federal's 95-grain ball at the full bullet weight, where PMC Bronze 90-grain is the only lighter load compared
- The most recoil of the loads compared, which a small blowback .380 passes straight to the hand
- Winchester USA 95-grain FMJ comes close for a touch less recoil
