This is a .380 ACP +P 100 grain hard cast bullet with a flat nose. It is traveling over 1,150 fps out of a 3.75 inch BDA (Browning Double Action) handgun. The extra-high velocity comes from the +P (Plus Pressure). Since most self defense shooting situations take place during the night, Buffalo Bore have used a flash suppressed powder to help eliminate flash from your own gunfire. They have also chosen a flat nosed solid bullet. The flat on the nose ensures that the bullet will cut/smash its way through flesh and bone and do much more destruction and devastation than a typical round nose FMJ bullet. The flat nose not only wounds much more than a round nosed bullet, but it actually keeps the penetration straighter and ultimately deeper. This ammo is quickly becoming the top self defense load on the market. Count on Buffalo Bore Ammo.Specifications:Muzzle Velocity: 1160 fpsVelocity at 25 yards: 1094 fpsVelocity at 50 yards: 1042 fpsMuzzle Energy: 298 ft/lbsEnergy at 25 yards: 266 ft/lbsEnergy at 50 yards: 241 ft/lbsUses: Personal Protection
