Preferred Weight For .380 Self Defense Ammo
Most of my limited firearms experience is with a 9mm. My wife is getting ready to get herself a .380 semi for self-defense purposes. Just curious what weight ammo people prefer for this caliber handgun.

90-95gr seems to be the best performers. Heavier rounds often fail to expand. I personally keep my BG380 loaded with Gold Dots.
Here's a video of the 102gr Golden Saber round failing to expand... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATTBudWGunI
