I second the motion.

This thread showcases the different philosophies regarding the use of FMJ vs. JHP ammo in .380 ACP, as well as the pitfalls of +P loads, in such a way that allows people to make a more informed decision. The cordial nature of this thread, as well as Erich's insights based on his unique opportunity to study the .380 due to his profession, also makes it a most enjoyable read. The links to online gel tests are invaluable IMO. Questions regarding the .380 are so common that a .380 sticky, as well as .38 spl. makes a lot of sense.

I also would like to add that, thanks to a generous ammo donation from BigRich315, I've fairly recently added the test results for four more .380 JHP loads to the Perma-Gel Test Results thread.
