Follow-up on prior Atomic 380 ammo test. I emailed the company and obtained some additional info for anyone interested:
1) They load to SAAMI max specs of 21,500 psi 2) Test barrel they use is 3.75" to reach the claimed 1100 FPS 3) They still claim 1000 FPS from LCP(2.75") or similar barrels. 4) They use XTP bullets unless packaging claims "bonded" which would then be a Speer projectile. Most recent batches are XTP.
