If you want to give a .380 a *true* torture test, have a brain fart that causes you to think that the "2" on the 10th beam of the scale means 2/10ths instead of 2 grains.
7 grains of AA#5 under a 100 grain hardcast bullet will make a LCP Max *BARK* (I was looking for 5.2 grains,...which would have been a very warm load in itself. Instead I dumped 7 grains in)
I guesstimate about 41,000 PSI and 1350 fps. Those Buffalo Bore .380+Ps ain't got *schitt* on it.
10 rounds of it didn't blow nothing up. But the little LCP Max rattles a bit more than it did before.
Hence, my purchase of a Glock 43 this morning.
