I understand why he doesn't test +P 380 but I wish he would test a few anyway. I'm interested in actually velocity, consistency, and performance of the BB JHP +P.

I don't believe that's a SAAMI spec for .380 +p.
He also tested the P9HST1 which is the only test I've seen of this particular load...although he tested in clear gel I believe. But it seemed to perform fairly well in his test.
His test are gel and denim/gel.
Here are his test list for that 380 stuff: http://shootingthebull.net/blog/category/ammo-test/
Summary:
Best are all the XTP based ones; Then Federal hydra-shok. Cor-bon SD38090/20 is notable because it's failure was over penetration from lack of expanding in denim.(over is better than under) Speer gold dot was close to passing. Stay away from anything else for the short barrel 380's.
