I bought two 50 round boxes of PMC Bronze 90gr FMJ and one 25 round box of Hornady Critical Defense 90 gr FTX. I didn't bother to look at our local Wal-Mart since they never stock any handgun ammo. The PMC was $20 a box, and the Hornady was $25...at $1 a round, I won't be burning up a lot of that!

The BG80 does feel a lot better than the other 380s I have tried, including the Kahr, LCP, the Bersa Thunder (which didn't feel bad, it was just too big for a pocket pistol; at that size, I'd rather carry my M&P9c or G26), and the SIG P238. I have to admit, I kinda liked the P238, but I wanted a pistol that my wife could also carry in her purse on occasion too, and she was scared of the "cocked and locked" carry (she doesn't like my 1911s either) so I traded it.

I'm going to try to find some ammo at other Wal-Marts or Academy...I've ordered online before, but the shipping costs eat up any savings, so I might as well buy locally.
