The DoubleTap 380 ACP 95gr JHP Defense Controlled Expansion Ammunition is engineered for shooters who carry a .380 ACP and demand reliable, predictable performance when it matters. This is a purpose-built defensive load that addresses one of the most common criticisms of the .380 platform—that it falls short of true stopping potential. DoubleTap's controlled expansion hollow point design ensures the round performs consistently across a range of barrel lengths and firearm platforms, from compact pocket pistols to full-size .380 models.
What sets this round apart is DoubleTap's commitment to practical ballistics without unnecessary flash. The standard pressure loading delivers excellent penetration while producing virtually no muzzle flash—a significant advantage if you ever need to defend yourself in low-light conditions. Whether you're shooting from a Glock 42, Beretta Pico, Kel-Tec, Bersa Thunder, or another .380, this ammunition is built to work reliably across the board. The 95-grain bullet weight is the sweet spot for .380 ACP, balancing velocity, recoil, and terminal performance in a platform known for modest energy budgets.
Each box contains 20 rounds, making it easy to keep a rotation of fresh, purpose-driven defensive ammunition in your carry gun and spare magazines. For serious .380 ACP carriers, DoubleTap's controlled expansion rounds represent a meaningful upgrade over standard range loads—a choice that reflects both your firearm and your responsibility.
| Caliber | .380 ACP |
| Bullet Weight | 95 grains |
| Bullet Type | Jacketed Hollow Point (JHP) – Controlled Expansion |
| Muzzle Velocity (standard test barrel) | 1000 fps |
| Muzzle Energy (standard test barrel) | 200 ft. lbs. |
| Pressure Type | Standard Pressure |
| Rounds per Box | 20 |
DoubleTap loaded this round with verified velocity data from common .380 platforms including the Glock 42, Beretta Pico, Kel-Tec, and Bersa Thunder, using barrel lengths typical to those firearms. It is a standard pressure loading designed for reliability across .380 ACP pistols, but always consult your firearm's manual for approved ammunition specifications.
A controlled expansion hollow point is designed to open reliably and predictably upon impact, delivering energy to the target rather than over-penetrating or failing to expand. This ammunition is specifically engineered for that consistent performance, which is why serious .380 ACP carriers choose it over range ammunition for defensive carry.
No—this load is noted for producing virtually no muzzle flash. That's a genuine advantage in a defensive scenario, especially in low-light conditions where flash can impair your vision and night-adapted reflexes.
Each box contains 20 rounds, making it easy to maintain a fresh rotation of defensive ammunition in your carry weapon and spare magazines.
