Hornady Critical Defense 38 Spl 110gr FTX HP 90310 Overview

Hornady Critical Defense 38 Special 110 grain hollow point 90310 ammo offers Hornady's FTX nose design in a standard-pressure 38 Special cartridge. Its 110-grain bullet is lighter than the traditional 158-grain revolver projectile, but this particular loading should not be confused with the separate +P version.

A flexible FTX insert occupies the hollow-point opening to reduce the chance of clothing interfering with bullet upset. Hornady gives this ammunition a 1,010-fps factory rating, providing a clear point of distinction from the 110-grain +P Critical Defense offering. The lower pressure classification may matter for cartridge selection, although every revolver still requires an appropriate condition and compatibility check.

Owners of lightweight or short-barreled revolvers can compare its impact location with their normal range load without assuming that sharing the same 38 Special chambering means identical external ballistics. The cartridge's chief identity is the conventional pressure designation paired with a modern filled-cavity defensive bullet. Twenty-five rounds of this ammo supply the standard-pressure FTX cartridge for sight regulation and handling checks.
