Description
Hornady Critical Defense 5.7x28mm ammunition loads 40 grain FlexTip (FTX) bullets in a 25-round box. The Flex Tip technology is designed to reduce clogging and inconsistency issues common with hollow point designs. Hornady uses nickel-plated cases for increased visibility in low-light situations, and the load uses premium low flash propellants. It is intended to perform reliably even in very short-barreled handguns.
