I recently did this with 380 using 95 grain lead cast round nose and unique fired out of 2 guns, a Llamma minimax and a bersa thunder 380, I even had 2 different shooters for even more thourough testing. I found that my min loads did not cycle the Llamma Minimax all the way, I had one shell do a 180 in the slide and end up pinched between the barrel and the slide backwards. I ended up using my hottest loads as my target load on the other 480 rounds because it consistently cycled both weapons and accuracy was awesome in both weapons by both shooters.

Thanks for taking the time to post this. I just bought a ruger LCP and have a bunch of AA# 5 so this is very helpful.
