Product Overview
Hornady Critical Defense .45 ACP ammunition is engineered for dependable self-defense performance with a 185 grain polymer tipped bullet. Featuring a muzzle velocity of 900 fps and muzzle energy of 333 ft. lb., this cartridge delivers consistent and effective terminal ballistics. The patented FTX? bullet design ensures controlled expansion and creates large, deep wound cavities over a wide range of velocities, making it highly effective against threats. Its design allows it to perform reliably even through thick clothing such as denim and leather, ensuring reliable expansion and penetration in real-world self-defense scenarios. Manufactured in the USA, Hornady's proprietary clean-burning and stable propellants help reduce recoil in lightweight handguns while maintaining consistent performance in all temperature conditions. The ammunition features minimal muzzle flash, which helps preserve night vision during low-light engagements, and the shiny silver nickel plating prevents corrosion while ensuring high visibility in low-light situations. The bullets are cannelured and crimped to prevent setback, and each is custom-designed for optimal loading and function in various pistols. This reloadable cartridge offers a combination of reliability, performance, and safety, making it one of the most effective self-defense options available today. Each box contains 20 rounds, with 10 boxes available per case, providing ample supply for training and defense preparedness.
