Hornady Critical Defense 22 WMR 45gr FTX – 50 Rounds

Hornady Critical Defense 22 WMR ammunition delivers reliable terminal performance from short-barreled revolvers and compact rimfire handguns. The 45-grain FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullet features a polymer insert that initiates consistent expansion through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers, addressing common hollow point plugging issues in defensive scenarios. This load is purpose-built for personal protection applications where penetration depth and wound channel consistency matter.

Optimized for 22 WMR revolvers and pistols with barrel lengths from 2 to 4 inches, this ammunition uses nickel-plated brass cases for reliable feeding and corrosion resistance. Available in 50-round boxes (case quantity: 2000 rounds). Hornady's rimfire priming ensures consistent ignition across temperature extremes.
