An Official Journal Of The NRA | New for 2020: Federal Hydra-Shok Deep in .380 ACP

Federal has introduced a .380 ACP load to its Hydra-Shok Deep lineup, the first cartridge for the chambering to consistently meet FBI protocol recommendations for penetration—12 inches minimum—through bare gel and through heavy clothing.

I'll have to pick some of this up once it hits store shelves, and give it a try for my daughter's Ruger LC380, and my LCP. I've been carrying Federal Hydrashock, and more recently, Hornady Critical Defense.

It does look interesting.

I want to see some independent gel testing before I buy any of it. If it holds up to its claim then I will switch. I now use Hornady XTP .380 . TNoutdoors did extensive testing of all .380 ammo and found the XTP loading gave the best and most consistent performance.
