Hornady Critical Defense 45 Colt 185gr FTX HP 92790 Overview

Hornady Critical Defense 45 Long Colt 185 grain hollow point 92790 ammo combines a relatively light 185-grain FTX bullet with the venerable 45 Colt revolver chambering. The flexible-tip design contrasts with classic 250- and 255-grain lead flat points, while the modern defensive nose gives the cartridge a different intended role.

Hornady uses the FTX insert to occupy the hollow-point cavity and help preserve its intended function after contact with clothing. The published velocity for this ammunition is 920 fps. Since 45 Colt firearms encompass designs with very different ages and strength, the precise factory loading and the particular firearm's approval matter more than a generic statement about caliber compatibility.

Owners whose sights are set for traditional heavyweight lead bullets may notice a change in point of impact. Check the firearm's guidance before selecting a modern defensive load and evaluate the actual flexible-tip projectile instead of expecting it to behave like a historical lead round. A box holds 20 rounds of this ammo, providing the selected 185-grain FTX for confirming sight regulation in the intended revolver.
