Bodyguard 2.0 .380 best ammo?

My 2.0 loves Underwood Xtreme Penetraters and Xtreme Defenders; both +P. Runs like a sewing machine. 50 rounds each with zero failures. Also up to 600 rounds of ball ammo without any hiccups. I'll pick up the redesigned RSA and sights when they become available.
 
Here's my 2 cents worth – No one has mentioned Speer Lawman 380 Auto 95 gr TMJ #53608. It's sold as a training round with a muzzle velocity of 950 fps (3.75 barrel length). They claim they're made to more consistent standards and have a Total Metal Jacket encapsulating the entire lead core.

I ran across an article saying it was a LAPD authorized duty ammunition for whatever that's worth.

I do know that it runs great in my Bodyguard 2.0 – no issues what so ever and it's reasonably priced.

In my BG2 so far I've shot Magtech FMJ, PCM Bronze FMJ, Sig V-Crown JHP, Hornady Critical Defense FTX, Hornady Custom XTP, Hornady FTX, Federal HST Personal Defense JHP, and Winchester PDX1 JHP, with ZERO failures.

I have not tried my Winchester 95 gr FMJ Flat Nose.
 
I'm using critical defense and gold dots in mine. It's for close and personal defense gun, I'm comfortable with my choice .
