New purchase Bersa 380 duotone

Hello

bought a 380 duotone today at pasadena gun center (tx)
254.33 after taxes. they give you a free range pass when
you buy a new gun.

shot great, no malfunctions after 100 rounds. very accurate
out to 30 feet.

purchased an uncle mike's in the pants holster for cc. quite comfortable
so far.

very pleased with the pistol.

i plan to reload for this gun. anyone have a favorite reload
combination they'd like to share?

Additional report on new bersa 380

at the range this afternoon, using a load of:

90g HP/XTP Hornady
3g Win 231

50 rounds no jams, no problems. this load is nearly the limit
for win 231 according to the tables with a FPS of 965.

not bad for a "short"

if anyone has a load they like, I'd be real interested.

My wife has one. They are nice little guns. I installed rubber wrap around grips and an extended mag bottom and it made the gun even better. I can't post links or else I would.

I would also add this, I have had 1 problem with the gun in roughly 600 rounds between the wife and I. That was when a spent shell somehow got flipped around and jammed in the barrell backwards with a fresh right behind. Not sure if there is a term for this or not. Pulled it out with a needle nose and aquick inspection and it's benn fine since.
