So I picked up some buffalo bore 90gr JHP .380 +p for my bodyguard. Should I go with that or Hornaday critical defense for everyday carry? Is the +p gonna be too much kick for effective use in such a small handgun?

I would go with whatever ammo has been cycled through your BodyGuard a few hundred times without fail.
 
I only had my BG 380 about 3 weeks. I've shot a couple of target brand ammos and about 150 rounds of HCD rounds. The HCD has cycled well and I plan to use it when I carry the BG. Never tried any other personal defense ammo in it though.
 
The manual states that +P will accelerate wear of the components. Doesn't mean much if you don't shoot them a lot....
 
After doing a little research, I ordered some HCD for my wifes BG380 (which is still on it's way to my FFL guy). I keep HCD's and Gold Dot's for carry in my 9mm.
