The only 380 I reload much is shot shells but I just don’t shoot the round much, other than killing snakes.

It really prefers Federal Hydroshoks (the originals) and chokes frequently on others. I am convinced that it is OAL. What was your OAL when you load the .380 for the Sig P232?
95g JHP bullet, I was using 231 if I recall as a powder.....

.977"

I load the .380 on a Dillon 550. I use 100gr or 95gr, whatever I can get. Also use W231 powder for this round. Not hard to reload. I reload for for a Kimber, Walther PPK/s and a Colt. All shoot my reloads without issues!

I've been reloading since I first started shooting in 1972, but only recently have put my faith in the 380 as a defence round and started reloading for it.

I use my Lee turret press and favor TiteGroup and 95 gr. coated LRN bullets from SNS for practice.
