Hornady Critical Defense 410GA 2.5" Slug + Buckshot – 20 Rounds

Hornady Critical Defense 410 Gauge delivers serious home defense capability in a compact shotshell format. Each 2.5" shell combines a 41-caliber FTX slug with two .35-caliber round balls, creating multiple wound channels with reduced over-penetration compared to full-power slugs. The FTX slug features Hornady's Flex Tip technology for reliable expansion through heavy clothing and intermediate barriers, while the round balls add pattern density at defensive distances.

Designed for 410-bore revolvers, lever-actions, and defensive shotguns, this load is optimized for shorter barrels where velocity and pattern spread matter most. Suitable for home defense or close-quarters use where maneuverability and reduced recoil are priorities. Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion and feed reliably in both pump-actions and break-open firearms.
