Well I am back..380 new 115g blue bullets shot super good. Very light and soft like you would expect from 380. I really liked it and could have shot it all day! Also shot the Tanfolia Witness in 9mm it also shot very well with hotter rounds of course. Lastly shot the dreaded Glock and it was OK. I need more time with this gun but I fixed the grip with a Hogue slip on grip and it is a very good grip now. All guns were on the paper with no misses at all. I would say I was at a good 35'. As good as I needed to be with untested rounds. One more thing I would have shot more but the family Sheppard was in my face the whole time and it got old fast. Nice dog but I hate to be using someones target  range and then kill the family dog!! Well I stopped before that happened.  Craig

Got part way into reloading 380 when the power went off. I finished the testing rounds with a flashlight but didn't need it except to check for powder and levels etc. Power is back on so I can do more but this was another test for the 115g blue bullets between the 3.3 power pistol and the 4.3 power pistol using the 95g bullet. Going by felt recoil and sound. The old standby for testing without all the real testing stuff !!!Craig

Back from the range. The rounds worked great with the 95g and 115g seeming the same and as strong as I remembered the 380 being. I also took and shot the STI international 9mm and it is a fine gun that I do really enjoy shooting when I can. So I will probable stay at 3.3 PP for the 115g and will try some hollow points for something to do.  Boy 380 who' knew?   Craig

OK just topped off the 380 blue, fmj and finished with v-chrown jhp. We are haven'  fun now!!!

Looking for something to do I went back to 9mm.  You know you are into it when you are looking for the worst, nastiest, most tarnished brass you can find as you know the wet tumbling will do it's thing and it did!!! I had found some very tarnished brass and it came out like new. Fun city.  Craig
