Hornady has been an industry leader in high performance ammunition for decades. When the demand came for a better self defense round, Hornady answered the call with their Critical Defense line. All Critical Defense ammunition is loaded with the FTX bullet that features a hollow point with a polymer tip to maximize ballistic performance and reliable expansion. The FTX's unique design and nickel plated brass cases allow it to feed and cycle reliably in all pistols. Why trust your life or the lives of your loved ones to anything less than the very best? Make sure you have Hornady Critical Defense in your self defense firearm!
This .22 Mag Critical Defense load is specifically engineered for short barrel pistols. And the 45 grain FTX round is unaffected by thick heavy clothing. The combination is a magnum rimfire round that produces devastating terminal ballistics comparable to a much larger round. The question is not if you should use Hornady Critical Defense in your .22 Mag, the question is why would you use anything else?
