Not much traffic on the forum these days. I recently used my P380 to test this ammo. Results were not good.

You can read all about the test here. http://mousegunaddict.blogspot.com/2012/01/cop-380-auto-copper-only-projectiles.html

Great review! I hadn't seen these before & will now pass 'em by if I do.
If the manufacturer could bump up the energy/velocity numbers, they could be slightly better defensive rounds than FMJ.

What works the best for you?

Not sure which one of us you meant, so I'll go first.
I've had 100% success with Winchester USA FMJ & Remington UMC JHP.

I've had really good luck with literally dozens of different ammos in my P380. After doing velocity checks on them all, I decided to go with Remington UMC 88grain JHPs mixed with Rem/UMC 95 grain leadless flat point fmjs. I put a few of each in the mag and hope for the best in the expansion vs. penetration debate. Regardless of the expansion question, these loads produce a bit more energy than Gold Dot, Silver Tips, and Hydra Shocks but are more affordable, available, and come in boxes of 50 and 100 so I can practice with my carry loads without too much concern about cost.

I steer clear of Fiocchi FMJ, S&B FMJ, and Tulammo FMJ as they do not feed in my P380.

American Eagle worked well for me today.
