Cheapshooter As mentioned there is no such thing as 380+P. Only over pressure ammo hyped by boutique ammo makers for people who wish they had bought a 9MM instead.

This.
No SAAMI spec for .380+P ammunition.

While ammo produced by manufacturers as ".380+P" may actually exceed the SAAMI spec for .380 ammunition..........it isn't an industry standard.

Remember, "+P" means higher pressure, not necessarily higher performance.

7. USE PROPER AMMUNITION.
Only use factory-loaded, new ammunition manufactured to industry
specifications: CIP (Europe and elsewhere), SAAMI® (U.S.A.).......

AMMUNITION
AMMUNITION (CARTRIDGE) NOTICE: Beretta specifically disclaims
responsibility for any damage or injury occurring with, or as the result
of using faulty, non-standard, “remanufactured”, hand-loaded or
reloaded ammunition, or cartridges other than those for which the
firearm was originally chambered. Serious damage or injury, even death,
could result from the use of incorrect ammunition, from firing against
bore obstructions and from propellant overloads. Use of improper
ammunition, such as listed previously, will void the manufacturer’s
warranty. Use only high-quality, commercially-manufactured ammunition
made in accordance with CIP (Europe and elsewhere) or SAAMI®
(USA) standards. Be certain that the ammunition is the appropriate
caliber and loading for the firearm and is clean, dry and in good
condition. The caliber of the pistol is marked on the back of the barrel,
visible from the ejection port.
NOTICE: The Beretta Pico is designed to safely use the ammunition
marked as +P. The extended use of +P ammunition may decrease the
component part service life expectancy.

Someone ought to let Beretta in on what SAAMI standards mean.
