See Chapter 5, section 5.1.2.

Also see Appendix D1 - D5 concerning Power Factor for each class.

Which states:
5.1.2 The minimum cartridge case dimension for handguns to be used in
USPSA matches is 9x19 mm. The minimum bullet diameter is 9 mm
(.354 inches).
So then the answer is yes, .380 Auto is USPSA legal. I understand there are power factor issues.
Thanks, rcmodel

Ectually, old chap, it is not.
"The minimum cartridge case dimension for handguns to be used in

The .380 ACP is sometimes known as the 9x17. Not one, but two silly millimeters too short.
