Details
Critical defense ammo expands uniformly and performs well even when penetrating thick clothing.
Hornady Critical Defense ammunition is loaded with Hornady's patented Flex Tip bullet. Unlike most hollow point bullets, the Flex Tip bullet features a soft polymer insert that allows for consistent and reliable expansion. Each bullet is custom designed for individual loads and loaded in nickel plated cases to help prevent corrosion.
This ammunition is designed by Hornady to expand every single time. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable nickel-plated brass cases.

- Absolute great wild Hog and Self Defense Round! Review by NV Dave

One shot one Hog. It just does not get any better than that! If this round performs this well on a wild Hog, it will stop any bad guy breaking into your home. (Posted on 1/19/13)Quality Performance Value - great Review by jim

some of the best self defense rounds you can get at a great price. (Posted on 3/31/11)Performance Value Quality - clean, accurate, maybe a little underloaded Review by Fwank

Good groups at 25 yards from my 4" GP100 and seems cleaner than average. Recoil is on the mild side. However, the chrono says it's only doing about 1370 +/- f.p.s. from my gun. Some production lots of Remington L357M1B will break 1500 f.p.s. from this gun, though with really flat primers and really sticky extraction.Performance Value Quality
From the testing I've read this seems to be a fairly decent defensive round--it expands well, it penetrates well, it seems like a good bet to destroy a lot of tissue--but I wish they were loaded hotter. This is something we see with a lot of Hornady factory loaded .357, velocities 100 f.p.s. or more below what we would expect for a given bullet weight. (Posted on 1/14/11) - Outstanding Ammo!

Ballistically, this ammunition does everything which Hornady advertises. "LuckyGunner" has exceptional service, and the delivery took less time than expected. I will be a returning customer, often! (Posted on 12/13/10)Quality Performance Value - 357 LHP FXTAMMO Review by HEDGEHOG
