Chris Baker concurs on heavier bullets improving the reliability of small locked breech automatics in .380. I preached that for years, ever since the Glock 42 came on the market. However, Chris adds measurements of slide velocity, which are a more accurate predictor of reliability. The bullet weight is only one of the inputs into that. However, he and I agree that bullet weight has the greatest influence, greater than the muzzle energy. This is bad news for fans of lightweight monolithic bullets backed by a spicy charge.
