If you're carrying a .380 ACP, you're making a practical choice. You know what trade-offs come with the caliber, and you want ammunition engineered to maximize what the cartridge can do. That's where Cor-Bon's DPX load steps in.
This isn't your typical hollow point. The DPX bullet is machined from homogenous solid copper instead of traditional jacketed construction. That matters because the design was purpose-built around barrier performance. Real-world defensive situations often involve intermediate barriers: heavy clothing, auto glass, sheet metal. Most hollow points get plugged or deformed passing through these materials and essentially turn into ball ammo. The all-copper DPX construction maintains 100% bullet weight even after penetrating heavy barriers, then expands reliably on the target.
Loaded to standard pressure (not +P), the 80-grain solid copper projectile leaves the barrel at 1050 feet per second, delivering 196 foot-pounds of muzzle energy from compact pistol barrels. Internal serration cuts (rather than external grooves) work to promote consistent, controlled expansion once the barrier performance has done its job. The result is a round that's specifically engineered to handle the penetration challenges the .380 ACP cartridge faces while staying reliable in firearms like the Ruger LCP, Glock 42, SIG Sauer P238, and similar micro-compact models.
The ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, and loaded in reloadable brass cases with boxer primers. The solid copper bullet construction is also lead-free, which matters to shooters looking for environmentally responsible ammunition.
Barrier-blind performance means the bullet reliably expands and penetrates regardless of intermediate obstacles like auto glass, sheet metal, or heavy clothing. The DPX's solid copper construction maintains its weight after passing through these barriers, then expands reliably on target. Many traditional hollow points get plugged by barriers and lose their expansion characteristics, which defeats their purpose.
No, this is standard pressure ammunition, not +P. Some shooters prefer standard loads in older or lighter .380 ACP models. The 1050 fps velocity is efficient for the 80-grain bullet weight and standard pressure loading.
Yes, the solid copper construction and hollow point design are specifically engineered for reliable feeding in micro-compact models. The ammunition functions in pistols like the Ruger LCP, Glock 42, SIG Sauer P238, and Kahr P380, though as with any defensive load, testing it in your specific firearm before relying on it is always recommended.
Yes, the solid copper bullet construction is 100% lead-free, making it an environmentally responsible choice. The ammunition is certified as California lead-free compliant and uses reloadable brass cases.
