.380 ACP: RNFP vs Lehigh XP - Test

There were two recent threads about .380 ACP rounds, and the effectiveness of different bullet profiles.

Here is a little test I did, not much of a scientific report, but visual enough.

Spoiler alert: I don't ordinarily carry a .380 ACP, but when I do, it has Lehigh bullets in the mag...

The contenders:

Freedom Munition 100gr RNFP



Lehigh 90gr Xtreme Penetrator:



And the tests:

RNFP



Lehigh XP

Got some Hornady XTP somewhere, if I find them I'll post the results.

But the thing with these two is that they're both solid bullets, and the Lehigh relies solely on its shape to do the job... Can't fail to expand if you don't expand anyway, duh!
