Gel test Results

We fired five rounds of this Corbon 380 Auto (ACP) ammo through a cloth barrier into Clear Ballistics calibrated synthetic gelatin and recorded the results. For these tests, we used a Ruger LCPII with a 2.75-inch barrel. In the photos, graphics and video on this page, you can see specifically how the Corbon ammo performed and how it sticks up with the rest of the 380 Auto (ACP) ammo we have tested so far.
