Gel test Results
In hopes of giving ourselves and our customers a better idea how this 380 Auto (ACP) self-defense ammo would perform if called upon in a self-defense scenario, we tested dozens of the best selling hollow points on the market.
We fired five rounds of this Winchester Ammunition 380 Auto (ACP) ammo through a cloth barrier into Clear Ballistics calibrated synthetic gelatin and recorded the results. For these tests, we used a Ruger LCPII with a -inch barrel. In the photos, graphics and video on this page, you can see specifically how the Winchester Ammunition ammo performed and how it sticks up with the rest of the 380 Auto (ACP) ammo we have tested so far.

Ran this through my wifes M&P.
Shoots with out any flaws, spot on and exploded the soda cans I was shooting.
All the other HP I was testing did not do as much damage. EXPLODED the cans.
I know it was not a gell test, but the diffrence in performance .... no comparison.
