Default FMJ or HP in small caliber semi-autos?

I finally got around to getting a Ruger LCP (.380) to replace my old Kel-Tec .32 that I've carried in my back pocket 'til the finish is gone.
I know I'll take heat for the maker and caliber of that .32 but in the meantime a question.

I have Gold Dot & Hornady 380 ammo for my PPK so I'm going to run those through the Ruger.
Do you think it's just as well to shoot FMJ through a small caliber semi-auto?

I wonder how a small HP would expand and if it's even a factor in .380 and below.
Maybe you want the small round to go deep instead of more shallow but bigger around?

What do you think?

GF
