    I used bullseye in mine. Can't get much slow burning in that small case.

    I've tried Bullseye in the .380, it will do fine. But, I've become a big fan of Power Pistol for both .380 and 9mm over the last few years.

    Sorry, never tried Bullseye. I tried Power Pistol, WIN 238, and Unique. Unique is all I use now...but I do use CCI SP.

    I've used B'eye, 700X and Unique in the .380 with bullets from 85 to 100 gr. All worked fine. B'eye seemed a bit dirtier than the others and Unique gives the highest power, it also has the brightest muzzle flash. I've used CCI primers for yesrs and have no complaints.

    Silhouette and True Blue are small grain and pack tight, so you can pack a lot in a small case.
    If you have loading data, go for it.
