Hornady Critical Defense 9x18mm Makarov 95gr FTX – 25 Rounds

Hornady Critical Defense 9x18mm Makarov delivers reliable defensive performance in this historically overlooked caliber. The 95-grain FTX (Flex Tip eXpanding) bullet features a polymer insert that prevents clogging in fabric barriers while initiating consistent expansion on impact. Originally developed for concealed carry firearms, this load brings modern hollow point technology to Makarov pistols without the feeding issues common to traditional JHP designs in these platforms.

Loaded to standard 9x18mm Makarov pressures, this ammunition functions reliably in all standard Makarov pistols including the PMM, PA-63, CZ 82, and similar chamberings. Nickel-plated cases aid in smooth feeding and corrosion resistance. Available in 25-round boxes or 250-round cases for range practice and carry rotation.
