Hornady Critical Defense, 38 Special, 90 Grain, 25 Round Box

Product Description

The Hornady Critical Defense Lite 38 Special ammunition combines premium performance with manageable recoil for defensive handguns. This 90-grain load pairs a Flex Tip projectile with reduced felt recoil. Furthermore, it maintains reliable stopping power in compact and snub-nose revolvers commonly used for self-defense.

Each box contains 25 rounds engineered for shorter barrel lengths. Additionally, the Critical Defense Lite design allows faster follow-up shots. Therefore, shooters benefit from improved accuracy during defensive situations.

Premium Flex Tip Design

The Flex Tip projectile expands reliably on impact for consistent stopping power. Moreover, the polymer insert in the bullet’s nose cavity promotes controlled expansion. As a result, you get dependable performance trusted by law enforcement agencies nationwide.

This ammunition suits self-defense carry in compact revolvers exceptionally well. Additionally, it works for range training without excessive recoil fatigue. Indeed, shooters with recoil sensitivity find this load far more manageable than standard Critical Defense loads.

Reduced Recoil for Better Control

The 90-grain bullet weight reduces muzzle rise compared to heavier loads. Furthermore, faster follow-up shots become possible in high-stress defensive situations. Therefore, compact carry guns benefit significantly from this lighter recoil design.

Hornady maintains strict quality control at every manufacturing step. Additionally, consistent primers and powder charges ensure dependable performance shot after shot. Finally, every round meets professional standards backed by Hornady’s quality guarantee.
