Hornady Critical Defense Rifle .223 Remington 55 Grain FTX Flex Tip Expanding Ammo 20/Box 80270
Product Description
Hornady Critical Defense Rifle ammunition in .223 Remington is built for short-range defensive use where reliable terminal performance matters most. Each cartridge is loaded with Hornady’s 55 grain FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullet featuring a patented Flex Tip design that helps prevent the nose cavity from clogging through common barriers like heavy clothing, while promoting dependable expansion at lower velocities. Nickel-plated cases enhance corrosion resistance and visibility during low-light chamber checks, and the load is engineered to deliver consistent performance with minimal flash signature.
