Berry s Manufacturing Hybrid Hollow Point Features The Berry s Superior Plated Hybrid Hollow Point bullet begins as a swaged lead core electroplated with copper to final weight following the same plating process used across Berry s entire Superior Plated line. A final re-strike step shapes the precise Hybrid Hollow Point nose ensuring every bullet meets tight dimensional tolerances for consistent feeding and expansion. This combination of plating and re-striking is what gives the design its reliable expansion and weight retention characteristics once it reaches a target. Handloaders building .380 ACP defensive ammunition get a bullet engineered specifically for terminal performance in that cartridge rather than a generic round-nose profile adapted after the fact. The electroplated copper jacket also means handloaders avoid some of the bore fouling concerns associated with traditional cast lead bullets at moderate defensive velocities. At 100 grains and a .356 inch diameter this bullet is sized specifically for .380 ACP reloading applications and drops into standard reloading dies built for that caliber. Reported penetration of 8 to 9 inches places it in a practical range for personal defense loads built around the .380 ACP cartridge giving handloaders a documented performance baseline to load toward. Each box contains 100 jacketed lead bullets giving handloaders enough component to work up and test a load before committing to a larger reloading run. As with all Berry s bullets these ship as unprimed components only and require the reloader to supply cases primers and powder separately. Shooters who already load .380 ACP for practice or competition can use the same press and dies to build a dedicated defensive round around this hollow point profile.
