DoubleTap 380 ACP 80gr SCHP – Superb 380 ACP Defense Ammo, 1050 fps, 20 Rounds

Description

The DoubleTap 380 ACP 80gr SCHP load is built for shooters who want more from their 380 ACP than typical factory ammunition delivers. DoubleTap loads a 80 grain lead-free solid copper hollow point to a rated 1050 feet per second, producing about 196 foot-pounds of energy from a Glock 42. The solid copper bullet has no lead core, so it holds together and keeps nearly all of its weight as it expands, which helps a small 380 penetrate more consistently.

Why Choose the DoubleTap 380 ACP 80gr SCHP

• 80 grain lead-free solid copper hollow point
• Rated 1050 fps, 196 ft-lbs (Glock 42)
• About 1145 fps and 233 ft-lbs from a 3.5 in Bersa Thunder
• Lead-free for areas that require non-lead ammunition
• 20 rounds per box, item 380A80X

Built for Personal Protection

• Concealed carry with a pocket or compact 380 pistol
• Home defense for shooters who prefer light recoil
• Areas where lead-free ammunition is required
• Glock 42, Ruger LCP, SIG P238, Bersa Thunder and other 380 pistols

DoubleTap also offers a 95 grain Controlled Expansion JHP in 380 ACP, so owners can compare a light, fast solid copper load with a heavier hollow point and choose what runs best in their pistol.

Buying ammunition by the box from the same production lot keeps velocity and point of impact consistent from one range trip to the next. Keep a record of the load you carry, check your ammunition for dents or loose bullets from time to time, and rotate your carry rounds so the ones in your firearm stay fresh. These simple habits help you get the full performance DoubleTap builds into every cartridge.

Before you trust any new load, fire enough rounds through your firearm to confirm it feeds, fires and ejects reliably and that the point of impact matches your sights. Full-power loads produce more recoil and muzzle blast than typical range ammo, so practice with the DoubleTap 380 ACP 80gr SCHP until you are comfortable with it, and store the rest in a cool, dry place in the original box.

Why Choose DoubleTap 380 ACP Ammo

Getting enough penetration from a small 380 is a common challenge, and a solid copper bullet helps. Because it has no lead core to separate, it holds its weight as it expands. DoubleTap rates this load at 1050 fps and 196 foot-pounds from a Glock 42 and about 1145 fps from the longer 3.5 inch barrel of a Bersa Thunder.

When you compare 380 acp self defense ammo, look for a load that balances expansion and penetration in your specific pistol. This 380 acp 80 grain hollow point keeps recoil mild for fast follow-up shots, and it is lead-free for areas that restrict lead ammunition.

DoubleTap Ammunition is an American company known for loading popular calibers to their full potential, especially the 10mm Auto and other magnum handgun rounds. Doubletap 380 acp ammo is loaded with quality components and brass cases, and many shooters choose it when they want the performance a caliber was designed for rather than a reduced-power range load.

Concealed carriers who rely on a small, easy-to-carry 380 pistol will find this a strong lead-free defensive choice. Always confirm your firearm is chambered for 380 ACP, wear eye and ear protection, and follow all federal, state and local laws.
