CorBon DPX 380 ACP ammunition delivers proven defensive performance in a compact, reliable package built for personal protection in close quarters. This 80-grain load pairs solid copper projectiles with advanced internal serration design, engineered specifically for the .380 ACP platform where shot placement and reliable expansion matter most. Whether you're carrying a compact pistol for everyday defense or keeping a backup at arm's reach, DPX rounds are built to perform when it counts.
The CorBon DPX round uses a homogenous solid copper bullet—no jacket separation, no fragmentation. Instead of traditional external cuts, CorBon uses internal serration cuts that allow the copper bullet to expand reliably and shed its energy downrange. The bullet design promotes full expansion into a mushroom shape with multiple cutting petals, maximizing terminal performance through soft tissue while maintaining structural integrity through barriers. Because the projectile is 100% copper, it retains its full weight during expansion and penetration.
Each case ships with 25 boxes of 20 rounds, giving you 500 rounds per case for practice or stockpiling. The 380 ACP is popular in compact semi-automatic pistols and pocket carry firearms where snappy handling and low recoil make follow-up shots faster and more accurate than larger calibers. CorBon DPX rounds are loaded to safe pressure levels and reliable function across a wide range of .380 pistols.
If you rely on a .380 for personal protection, ammunition choice is critical—it's your only tool to stop a threat. CorBon DPX is purpose-built for that mission, not a compromised load or a generic round repackaged for self-defense.

Frequently Asked Questions
What .380 ACP pistols will this ammo work in?
CorBon DPX 380 ACP rounds are loaded to standard pressure and will function in any .380 ACP semi-automatic pistol or revolver chambered in .380 ACP. This includes compact carry guns, pocket pistols, and full-size .380 models.

Yes, CorBon DPX is loaded to safe, standard .380 ACP pressure levels. It is designed to function reliably in all .380 pistols without overpressure or feeding issues.
What makes the DPX bullet expand better than standard hollow points?

These internal cuts allow the bullet to expand into a mushroom shape with multiple cutting petals while maintaining its full weight, providing both expansion and deep penetration through barriers and tissue.
