Is anyone familiar with the ballistics of the .380 KT P3T round versus the .32 KT P32

I am doing the research and wondered if anyone had already invented this wheel. Thanks.

I can give you chrono data from my P3AT, but I do not own a P32.

In general terms the 32 acp has about 120 or so fpe.

380 is about 180 fpe.

I found this site that has some comparisons between .380 and .32:

It appears that going with the .380 and with the Federal Hydrashoks is the way to go.

NAA has some data on their site. Since the Kel-Tecs have longer barrels than the Guardians, you can probably assume that the velocities are even higher, but in similar relation.

Here's some P-32 info., maybe he'll do some .380 in a P-3AT one day:
