Underwood Xtreme Penetrator Handgun Ammunition .380 ACP 90gr Solid 1100 fps 20/ct

The Underwood Xtreme Penetrator .380 ACP handgun ammunition is built for shooters who demand serious performance from a compact carry round. Loaded with a 90-grain solid copper bullet at 1100 feet per second, this is deep-penetrating, lead-free ammunition designed to deliver reliable expansion and energy transfer where it counts. Twenty rounds per box come in nickel-plated brass cases—new production, boxer-primed, and reloadable, so you can reload and shoot again without breaking the bank.

The .380 ACP has long been the caliber of choice for those seeking a thin, lightweight pistol for concealed carry or backup defense. Underwood's Xtreme Penetrator line takes that platform seriously. With a muzzle energy of 242 foot-pounds and a ballistic coefficient of 0.12, this round is designed to cut through barriers and deliver consistent, controlled penetration on target. The solid copper construction means no lead in the projectile, making handling and cleanup cleaner, and it's rated safe for use in suppressed firearms if your setup calls for it.

This is ammunition built by shooters, for shooters who understand that in a compact defensive platform, bullet design matters as much as velocity. Whether you're a .380 ACP devotee running a Bersa, Ruger LCP, or Sig Sauer P238, the Xtreme Penetrator delivers the terminal performance and reloadable brass value that serious handloaders and self-defense practitioners expect from Underwood.
