Hornady Critical Defense 223 Remington 73 Grain FlexTip Ammunition

Hornady’s Critical Defense line brings purpose-built ammunition to short-range defensive scenarios with FTX bullets that represent a new generation of defensive rifle rounds. The patented Flex Tip design serves dual functions: it prevents nose cavity clogging when the bullet travels through heavy clothing, and it promotes reliable expansion even at low velocities.

This 223 Remington loading uses a 73-grain projectile, making it suitable for short-range defensive situations.
