What's the heaviest bullet one could use in a .380 load and be safe? I've seen a lot about 100gr being the heaviest but was wondering about 115gr. Would just be used for general plinking just to go shoot my .380.
New kid again. Curious, why are you looking for heavy bullets? My thinking is the heavier the bullet and lighter the gun the greater the felt recoil the harder it is to re-acquire the target.
but just in case he doesn't show, there is some reloading data for 380, 115gr data. http://www.nosler.com/Reloading-Data/380-Auto-(ACP)-Handgun-115-Grains.aspx
This is not a load I would use a fast powder with. Looks like you could compress Unique safely. Watch your COL, bullet setback could be a real issue
