Oddly enough, both are about .35 Caliber, which is why one can fire a .38 Special round out of a .357 Magnum.the .38 Special has an actual diameter of .357 and the .380 has a diameter of .355. So the .38 special is larger and they are typically heavier than the .380 (110gr vs 90gr).
Can you shoot .38 caliber ammo in a 380 caliber handgun?
No. Ammo designated as .38 or .38 special is different than ammo designated as .380. .380 is designed for semi-auto handguns and .38 ammo is for revolvers.More to the point, the .38 Special has a longer case, and a larger diameter projectile. The .38 special bullet measures .357" diameter, the .380 measures .355" diameter. The .38 special is a 'rimmed' cartridge, and the .380 is 'rimless'. Luckily, .38 Special ammo will not fit in a .380 magazine, otherwise the results could be disastrous, possibly turning your .380 handgun into a hand grenade.
