Has anyone ever duplicated the Underwood or Buffalo Bore 380+P loadings of a 90 gr xtp at 1200?
I get 1100 fps 90 gr speer JHP Gold Dot in Kel tec P3AT or Ruger LCP 2" barrels 6.2 gr Power Pistol [book load is 4.8 gr]
Those two small pistols are at the threshold of guppy belly case bulge with feed ramp intrusion into the chamber of 0.270".
With case webs only 0.100" thick, that leaves 0.170" of unsupported thin brass case wall.
All the other 380 pistols I have measured have better chamber support.
Other 380 pistol have longer barrels, and will get higher velocity.
