Lehigh Defense 380 Auto (ACP) 65gr FTM Handgun Ammo

Anybody here shoot this? If so, how do you like it? I know some think .380 is too small for self defense, but it is definitely better than nothing, and I was thinking these would be better than most FMJ ammo. What say you?

It works. I know a man personally that helped design the Lehigh defense loads. Some of the resting they went through was extremely impressive. I have Lehigh in every gun I own that could possibly be used for defense from carry guns to house/truck guns. So many different variables can cause Hollow Points to fail, while the Lehigh are virtually foolproof. And I've never had one fail to feed in a semi auto. I can't say the same for some Hollow Points. I'm 100% sold on the concept.

My wife's Glock 42 feeds it without a hitch and from what I've seen in YouTube videos it's likely the best defensive ammo for a .380 acp. Better than hollow points that may or may not expand and penetrate properly. That's what's in my wife's 42 right now and will remain so.

Dang bullets are too expensive. That being said, they are fun to load. I am hitting 1700 FPS with the 68grain .355 in the 9mm in a 3.5" barrel. I think I hit 2300 FPS in the 9x25 Dillon 5' bbl. Accuracy was good in the 9mm, never shot groups with the 9x25. I haven't tried them in the .380.
