A sweet cartridge. So clean. So accurate. Yes - it is pricey. But, when if comes to life and death - price is insignificant. You have one chance when faced with a deadly situation. You don't get a second. Get the best, and Hornady is it. (Posted on 2/9/13)

Pricey. Review by Moby

I'm assuming all the Critical Denfense rounds do what they claim to do. Hornady does a lot of research. I know the best price is always going to be LuckyGunner.

I've not shot anyone so how do I know the real quality. I love all these reviews that say the round is awesome. Did all these guys shot someone? LOLOLOLOL (Posted on 8/20/12)

Stop Whining! Review by JonJon

Hornady makes superb ammunition. "Critical Defense" means just that. This is more expensive ammo, and not meant to be used for extensive "range firing." Buy cheaper ammo to use at the range, "Critical Defense" ammo is meant to save your life if need be. Practice with something cheaper and stop whining about the cost of this excellent ammunition.

Great bullet but I have some issues with cost Review by Have cheap ammo will shoot

I like many others have these bullets in their gun for a real attacker situation. I just hope they live up to all the hype and advertising. But so far each one I practiced on went boom. I wish Horandy on the flip side would sell cheap waddcutters in .38 with same amount of 110gr to them. I can afford them but I could never afford to practice with them.

But bottom line the product went bang and Luckygunner.com was terrific as usual.

I live in CA so thanks for all great service. Some day we will get this thing new law overturned. Just consider CA a warning to all other states, don't give a inch of your rights away or they will take a mile. (Posted on 1/13/11)
