Berry's Hybrid Hollow Points combine two innovative developmental ideas to create one of the most reliable self-defense bullets on the market today. Following the same precise process as their Superior Plated Bullets, these Hybrid Hollow Points begin with a swaged lead core, which is then electroplated with copper to achieve the desired weight. The bullets are then re-struck to meet exact specifications and form the Hybrid Hollow Point nose design. This unique design maximizes expansion and weight retention, ensuring optimal terminal performance. For the .380 caliber, these bullets achieve an impressive 8 inches to 9 inches of penetration, making them a top choice for personal defense.
