Description
Double Tap's Match ammunition is built with the precision handloader's mindset. The 100-grain full metal jacket projectile is engineered to feed reliably across platforms while keeping barrel fouling minimal. You get the consistency you'd expect from a smaller specialty ammo producer, with special attention paid to every component selection and powder charge.
Double Tap .380 ACP Match Performance
Velocity sits around 810 fps from a Glock 42 (850 fps from a Bersa Thunder), delivering muzzle energy in the 145-160 ft-lbs range depending on barrel length. That's solid performance from standard pressure loading, and you get virtually no muzzle flash in low-light conditions. The flat point bullet design feeds smoothly while providing better penetration characteristics than round nose alternatives.
Clean Shooting and Accurate Practice
The FMJ construction means you're looking at reduced barrel fouling compared to lead bullets, making cleanup faster and easier. This matters when you're putting dozens of rounds downrange regularly. The powder is clean-burning and consistent shot to shot, so your groups stay tight and predictable. If you're training with this and carrying a defensive load, matching velocities and bullet weights helps you maintain the same sight picture and recoil impulse.
Double Tap has built its reputation on listening to what people actually need from their ammunition. The result is a 100-grain load that fills the gap between general range ammo and specialized match rounds. This is the kind of ammunition you reach for when precision and reliability matter.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Double Tap's 100-grain match load compare to other practice ammo?
Double Tap's Match load is built with component quality and consistency in mind. The 100-grain FMJ travels at velocities comparable to common defensive loads, which means your point of impact and recoil impulse stay consistent between practice and carry ammo. Minimal muzzle flash and clean-burning powder are standard across the line.
Will this ammo cycle reliably in compact .380 pistols?
Yes. The flat point projectile is designed specifically for reliable feeding across different platforms. Double Tap loads for the tighter tolerances you find in compact frames, so it'll function smoothly in everything from single-stack pistols to standard-sized options.
Is Double Tap .380 ammo reloadable?
The brass cases are reloadable, so if you're into handloading, you can get extra life out of each round. The consistent quality control means the brass is durable and uniform, making it suitable for processing and reloading.
What makes the Match designation different from Double Tap's other loads?
Match ammunition focuses on precision and consistency for training and target work. The Match line uses standard pressure loading with careful powder and primer selection to deliver tight velocity spreads and minimal variation shot to shot, making it ideal for developing marksmanship skills.
