Overview

The Hornady Critical Duty 9mm Luger Ammunition is crafted for maximum stopping power and reliability in high-stakes environments. Designed for both civilian self-defense and law enforcement applications, this ammunition emphasizes performance in scenarios demanding consistent expansion through common barriers such as clothing and automotive glass.

History and Development

The Hornady Critical Duty series represents a significant advancement in ammunition technology, developed to meet stringent FBI standardized tests for duty ammunition. Engineered in the United States, Hornady leveraged proprietary research to refine the controlled expansion parameters, ensuring reliable terminal performance. Their use of advanced ballistic science over the years has led to continued improvement of penetration and expansion characteristics, putting Critical Duty at the forefront of defensive ammo choices.
