Do you prefer carrying a 380 ACP pistol because of its small size or light recoil? Or is that pocket pistol merely your backup in case your hand cannon runs dry during a fight? You’ll want to stock up on this Federal Punch ammo either way!

A Punch round delivers a strong jab indeed. This 380 Auto round’s 85 grain bullet packs 189 ft lbs of energy the muzzle. That’s not very powerful relative to larger rounds, but the Punch JHP uses its available energy very effectively. The bullet’s jacket features six skives that help it to expand quickly, and its core is made of soft lead that yields when it meets with resistance from organic tissue. The bullet reliably penetrates 10” deep in soft tissue and expands up to 70% in diameter – even if the target is shielded by thick denim.

Federal doesn’t just plate their Punch rounds’ new brass cases with nickel because it protects against corrosion. The sleek, low-friction metal also reduces the occurrence of feeding jams in semi-automatic handguns. Sealed primers promote even more dependable performance as they block humidity from reaching the powder!
