Sig Sauer’s Elite Performance 365 line in .380 ACP (part no. E380A1-365-20) loads a 90-grain V-Crown jacketed hollow point built specifically for the compact carry pistols the 365 name references. Sig Sauer engineers the V-Crown bullet with a V-shaped jacket cut with skives and scores for controlled, uniform expansion, backed by a patented stacked hollow point cavity design that helps the bullet keep expanding reliably even after passing through clothing. A toothed cannelure locks the jacket to the core for maximum weight retention on impact, while the nickel-coated case improves feeding, extraction, and corrosion resistance. This handgun ammunition is built for shooters who carry a compact .380 and want genuine defensive performance from it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the stacked hollow point design do? It gives the bullet an additional internal hollow point cavity, so expansion continues reliably even if heavy clothing partially plugs the nose on impact.

Why does Sig nickel-coat the case? Nickel coating improves lubricity and corrosion resistance while promoting smoother feeding and extraction, useful traits in a compact carry pistol.

Is this a good choice for everyday carry in a .380? Yes, it is built as a dedicated defensive load, combining a controlled-expansion V-Crown bullet with a case designed for reliable feeding in compact pistols.
