Key Features
Projectile Design and Terminal Performance
The distinct Silvertip projectile integrates an aluminum hollow point insert within a jacketed design. This engineering choice facilitates reliable, controlled expansion upon impact, crucial for maximizing energy transfer within the target while mitigating the risk of over-penetration. The 85-grain weight is optimized for the .380 Auto cartridge, balancing velocity and mass for effective defensive capability.
Casing and Feeding Reliability
Each round utilizes a nickel-plated brass casing, a specification chosen for its inherent benefits in defensive ammunition. The nickel plating enhances corrosion resistance for long-term storage and ensures exceptionally smooth feeding and extraction across a broad spectrum of .380 Auto firearms, minimizing potential malfunctions under duress.
Propellant and Ignition Consistency
Winchester precisely formulates the propellant charge for consistent muzzle velocities, optimizing the .380 Auto platform’s performance envelope. Paired with a non-corrosive boxer primer, this ammunition delivers reliable ignition, a critical factor for dependable operation when circumstances demand absolute consistency.
