Took my girl shooting because she wanted to get a gun for CCW and she'd never shot a gun. Asked for advice on here. Thanks for all your help. Had her try my SW Bodyguard .380 and a SW .38 revolver. Well, she didn't like the trigger on the SW revolver but loved the SW Bodyguard and she shot it really well. I carry the S&W Bodyguard .380 as my CCW gun. So really looking for ammo for both. I currently have Winchester PDX1, but I read that it wasn't great.
I ended up surprising her with a new Ruger LCP Enhanced .380 with the center fire laser and Galco pocket holster. I wasn't a fan of the LCP until they improved it with the Enhanced version which has improved sights and a much lighter and shorter trigger pull. I also like that it has no safety and a much better on/off switch for the laser. She took her CCW class and passed and also shot great with a SW MP 9mm, only having one round off target.
Now I just need a good self-defense round for it. I think I read that that Federal Hydra-shocks and Cor-bans were two of the best.
What's the best, readily available self-defense ammo in .380 caliber?
