Just a personal observation - Purchased a Bersa 380 Thunder to use as a CC weapon. When I first picked one up I like the feel and it fit perfectly in my pocket, but I wasn't sure if it was going to shot well. One trip to the range removed any doubt about the value of my purchase as the little 380 performed better than expected. Shooting from 25 yards (yards not feet) the 380 puts five shots groups in a pie tin grouping, and the groupings are getting smaller each time I go to the range. Loading my own ammo I had anticipated possible cycling problems but the gun never misses a beat. Because the 380 is a lighter weapon than the 9mm or up I wanted a PP load that I could feel confident in should I ever need to use the gun for that reason. After a bit of research and visiting with several bullet factory techs I settled on Barnes solid copper personal defense bullet. Loaded 10 rounds and went to range. Great groups at 25 yards and the info provided by the tech at Barnes leaves me with confidence in my Bersa 380.
