Keep in mind that Wild Bill Hickock killed 7 men (or was it 5?) in two years using an 1851 Colt Navy cap and ball revolver that launched a .36" piece of lead weighing about 90 gr. at a velocity near 900 fps. Now if you've checked your reloading manual you'll know that pretty much defines the ballistics of the .380 ACP. Having said that, I'll stick with my 125 gr. JHP's launched from my S&W Model 66 snubby, thank you.
