Berry's Hybrid Hollow Points combine two innovative developmental ideas, resulting in one of the most reliable self-defense bullets available today. Manufactured using the same process as their Superior Plated Bullets, each Hybrid Hollow Point starts with a swaged lead core, which is electroplated with copper to achieve the final weight. The bullet is then re-struck to precise specifications, forming the Hybrid Hollow Point nose design. This design ensures maximum expansion and excellent weight retention, providing optimal stopping power. For the .380 ACP, these bullets deliver impressive 8 inches to 9 inches of penetration, making them a highly effective choice for personal defense.
