Want a 45 ACP duty load that keeps performing after it passes through barriers? Pick up this 200 round case of Hornady Critical Duty 90926 45 ACP +P 220 grain FlexLock ammo.
Hornady built the Critical Duty line for law enforcement, where bullets are expected to perform after passing through heavy clothing, drywall, plywood, and auto glass. The 220 grain FlexLock bullet is the key. Its Flex Tip fills the hollow point cavity so it cannot plug with fabric or debris, which is a common cause of expansion failure. The InterLock band locks the jacket and lead core together, so the bullet retains its weight and penetrates deeply instead of breaking apart on hard barriers. Hornady rates this +P load at 975 fps and 464 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, more than most standard-pressure 45 ACP defensive loads. The crimped case helps prevent bullet setback during repeated chambering, and low-flash propellants help protect your vision in low light.
The 45 ACP has been trusted for defense for more than a century, and this load pairs its heavy bullet with modern engineering. Because it is rated +P, use it only in pistols approved for +P ammunition, such as most modern 1911s, the Glock 21 and 30, SIG P220, Smith & Wesson M&P45, and HK USP45. Since you should practice with the same ammo you carry, a 200 round case lets you confirm reliability in your pistol, learn its recoil, and rotate your carry ammo on schedule. It is a strong choice for concealed carry, home defense, and duty use.
This American-made Hornady ammo is new production, nickel-plated brass-cased, Boxer-primed, and non-corrosive. Nickel plating resists corrosion and feeds smoothly, but we do not recommend these cases for reloading. Each box holds 20 rounds, and ten boxes make up this 200 round case. Store it in a cool, dry place and rotate your carry magazines periodically.
