223 REM HORNADY CRITICAL DEFENSE 55 GRAIN FTX (200 ROUNDS)

This high tech 223 Rem cartridge from Hornady’s Critical Defense line of ammunition is absolutely packed with features that’ll help you protect yourself and your own. Its brass casing is nickel plated, so it is corrosion resistant, feeds smoothly, and is easily spotted during chamber checks in low light environments. Its specially formulated propellant reduces recoil and muzzle flash, so you’ll be able to make fast and accurate follow-up shots in the dark as well. Its Boxer primer is non-corrosive, so it’ll stay ready to fire in your magazine for ages.

This round features a 55 grain FTX projectile. Upon impact the bullet’s polymer tip will wedge deep within its high antimony lead core, initiating rapid expansion which will take down a threat fast. This bullet offers a very flat trajectory courtesy of its secant ogive profile, and its heavy jacket and core are mechanically locked together by an InterLock Ring for optimal weight retention during penetration. Any burglar who finds himself (or herself, because burglarizing is an equal opportunity career path) on the receiving end of one of these rounds is certain to wish they’d stayed in college.
