Frequently Asked Questions
Is Hornady American Gunner XTP .380 ACP suitable for everyday concealed carry?
Yes. The Hornady XTP bullet is specifically engineered for self-defense applications. Its controlled expansion design initiates reliably even through clothing and intermediate barriers, while the bullet's construction promotes deep penetration and high weight retention — key factors in an effective self-defense round.

Will this ammunition work reliably in a short-barreled .380 pistol like the Ruger LCP or Glock 42?
Yes. Hornady designed the American Gunner .380 ACP load to perform from the short barrels common in pocket and subcompact pistols.
