I generally go with JHP's. At the range I'd be expecting to use a .380 for defense (contact or close to) they have all the penetration I care about.
I buy HydraShocks, Gold Dots, or Cor-Bon - whichever's available at the local place when I need it. I've never had a problem with it running through my BG.
