Trust P3AT to stop?

I may be reading this wrong, but if you meant that you had two stovepipes in the very first magazine ever fired through the gun, with no problems afterwards, I would not hold the ammo at fault. While breaking in a semi-automatic firearm, a few jams are to be expected. I wouldn't hold any ammo at fault until at least 200 rounds have been put through the piece.

Yes, the only jams I had were in the first magazine fired straight out of the box without the thorough cleaning it should have had. I then fired a 2nd full magazine with no problems. I had no more Hydroshoks left to try that day, however, it has been totally reliable with approximately 200 of my RNL handloads and a few rounds of bargain basement European FMJ I found in the ammo locker. Since those first two magazines of Hydroshoks I have been planning to try them again, but they aren't cheap at the LGS price ($22.99 per box). I have also been experimenting with expensive factory ammo for my 1911, and my overall budget for guns, reloading components, and factory ammo is running on empty at this point.

I'll look into the Cor Bons and see how they fire in the .380. I'm currently putting the Hornady Critical Defense in it since it works flawlessly in my P11. With the plug in the hollow point, at least it won't get clogged up in clothing. Thanks for all the info and I look forward to trying some of the above listed ammo.
