Hornady Critical Defense 357 Magnum Review

Hornady Critical Defense 357 Magnum is a line of self-defense ammunition designed to provide reliable performance and stopping power. Calibers include the following .357 Magnum but also others. This particular Hornady Critical Defense 357 MAG load features a 125-grain FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullet, which is a hollow point style bullet with a soft polymer insert in the nose. The FTX design allows for the bullet to expand rapidly upon impact, creating a larger wound channel and maximizing stopping power.

The 125-grain weight is a common choice for .357 Magnum self-defense loads, as it strikes a balance between enough mass for penetration and enough velocity for expansion. The .357 Magnum is a powerful and versatile round, capable of taking down both human targets and medium-sized game.

Is Hornady Critical Defense Considered Hollow Point?

This ammunition is suitable for use in both revolvers and lever-action rifles chambered in .357 Magnum. Using the right type of ammunition for each specific purpose ensures maximum performance and safety.

Self Defense 357 Rounds
