Description

The 27F20 standard pressure load from Buffalo Bore brings real engineering to a cartridge that often gets overlooked. This round uses a 95 grain full metal jacket flat nose bullet seated in quality brass, engineered specifically for .380 ACP pistols that can be finicky about feeding. The flat nose design paired with the full metal jacket reduces friction during chambering, which matters in smaller platforms where even slight resistance can cause problems. You're getting clean barrel performance too, since the jacketed bullet prevents lead fouling.

What Makes Buffalo Bore's .380 FMJ-FN Different

Buffalo Bore doesn't make compromises with small cartridges just because they're small. The 27F20 stays within the standard pressure envelope, meaning it works reliably in everything from vintage Colt .380s to modern compact pistols without overstressing older guns or lightweight designs. Each round leaves the factory at 975 fps, generating 200 foot-pounds of energy. That velocity and the 95 grain weight give you nearly 20 inches of straight-line penetration through typical barriers, which matters if you're carrying or keeping this gun for any serious purpose.

Practical Loading for Real Guns

This ammunition comes packaged 20 rounds per box, with 12 boxes per case. The brass casings are quality construction and the loading is consistent, which means you'll get predictable point of impact and function without worrying about occasional duds or failures to feed. That reliability is why people trust Buffalo Bore across their entire lineup. Whether you're training regularly at the range, breaking in a new platform, or maintaining a defensive firearm, this standard pressure offering gives you confidence in the round.

Buffalo Bore's reputation for meticulous attention to detail carries through to this smaller caliber offering. Charges are weighed and checked, recipes are formulated to maximize performance within pressure standards, and every component is selected for the job. It's the kind of ammunition that doesn't demand special handling or troubleshooting in your pistol.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Buffalo Bore 27F20 work in my small .380 pistol?

Yes. The FMJ-FN bullet design and standard pressure loading are engineered specifically for reliable feeding in .380 platforms, including older or smaller models that can sometimes be picky with ammunition. The flat nose profile feeds smoothly without snagging, and the standard pressure ensures compatibility with any .380 that follows SAAMI specs.

What's the difference between this FMJ-FN and other .380 loads?

Buffalo Bore makes this load specifically for people who prefer jacketed bullets over cast. It maintains nearly identical penetration to their 100-grain hard cast option while producing slightly lower velocity due to barrel friction differences. The FMJ design keeps your barrel cleaner and feeds more consistently in semi-automatic pistols.

Can I use this ammunition for training and defense?

This ammunition is suitable for both applications. The FMJ-FN configuration prioritizes reliable feeding and penetration over expansion, making it practical for training with consistent performance characteristics. Some shooters also carry it for defense, though hollow point designs are traditionally considered better for stopping threats.

Is the Buffalo Bore 27F20 reloadable?

Yes. The rounds use quality brass cases with boxer primers, which means they're suitable for reloaders. After firing, you can process and reload the brass according to standard .380 ACP reloading specifications.
