Hornady Critical Defense Ammunition was purpose-built for concealed carry guns and designed to deliver reliable and controlled expansion regardless of target every time.. Critical Defense Ammunition is loaded with Hornady’s FTX bullet which has a soft polymer insert that delivers superior controlled expansion and large, deep wound cavities over a wide range of velocities. Each round is loaded into a nickel case for increased visibility in low-light situations and premium low flash propellants that deliver proven performance, even in very short-barreled handguns that will not disrupt your vision.  This ammunition was designed by Hornady to expand every single time. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases
Notice From Hornady: Temporary suspension of nickel-plated cartridge cases for Critical Defense Handgun Ammunition 5/25/21. Unfortunately, everyone is faced with production bottlenecks, and supply chains are stressed. In particular, the freight system is delayed longer than normal. Hornady’s current turnaround time on nickel-plating cartridge cases is 4+ weeks. This delay has created a significant bottleneck in the production of ammunition.  Due to these issues, Hornady has suspend nickel plating on all Critical Defense handgun ammunition to help reduce production time. Please note, this is a temporary suspension.
