New For 2024: Hornady Critical Defense 5.7×28 mm FN
Hornady is catering to a growing market of 5.7×28 mm FN-chambered firearms, many of which have been released only in the last few years, with its latest Critical Defense line expansion. The company’s 5.7×28 mm Critical Defense offering is topped with a 40-grain FTX bullet designed for personal defense.
Shipping in boxes of 25 rounds, the Hornady Critical Defense 5.7×28 mm FN load fills a need for 5.7 fans who have relatively few ammunition options on the market. This dedicated defensive load leaves the muzzle at a claimed 1,810 fps, and it’s that speed that provides an incredible amount of energy on target. With the company’s FTX projectile, the Flex Tip eXpanding design doesn’t clog with debris when passing through barriers, and the elastomer within the hollow tip ensures consistent, reliable expansion.
