…and mine: HPR 100-gr TMJ. At the speed that the bullet comes out of a P3AT, I don’t believe that an expanding bullet will expand much, especially if it is a slower expander like the Golden Saber. So I go with the best solid round I can find.
I bought a case of Dynomite-Nobel .380 SMG ammo a few years back 90gr flat-nose exposed lead tip. If you miss with the round, the muzzle-blast will cook the target’s eyeballs.

I shoot the hot cor-bons. 1050fps from a p3at; but they’re a stone ass bitch to shoot. Also they’re hard to find.

The Golden Sabers run great in my 1911; never tried them in a .380.
For y’all looking at hot loads for .380, check out Buffalo Bore 100 grain hardcast. I clocked them at 1,033 fps from a P3AT.
