Hornady has been an industry leader in high performance ammunition for decades. When the demand came for a better home defense round, Hornady answered the call with their Critical Defense Rifle line. All Critical Defense ammunition is loaded with the FTX bullet that features a hollow point with a polymer tip to maximize ballistic performance and reliable expansion. The unique FTX design and nickel plated brass cases allow it to feed and cycle reliably in all firearms. Why trust your life or the lives of your loved ones to anything less than the very best? Make sure you have Hornady Critical Defense Rifle in your home defense firearm!
This .223 Remington Critical Defense Rifle load is specifically engineered for maximum performance, and the 73 grain FTX round is unaffected by thick heavy clothing or hide.

The question is not if you should use Hornady Critical Defense in your rifle, the question is why would you use anything else?
