Hornady Critical Defense 5.7x28 40gr FTX HP 90000 Overview

Hornady Critical Defense 5.7x28 40 grain hollow point 90000 ammo brings the FTX flexible-tip design to a small-diameter, high-velocity centerfire cartridge. Unlike 9mm or 380 ACP, the 5.7x28mm uses its own distinct case and chambering, making careful cartridge identification especially important.

The 40-grain projectile combines a polymer-filled hollow-point nose with the light bullet mass characteristic of many 5.7x28mm loads. Hornady lists 1,810 fps for this ammunition. Its construction is intended to reduce fabric plugging of the cavity, but neither the factory speed nor the FTX name alone establishes specific penetration or expansion figures from a particular barrel length.

Shooters should evaluate feeding and sight regulation with this specific cartridge, rather than assuming that its light bullet weight tells the whole story. The 25-round box provides the actual ammo for checking point of impact in a properly chambered 5.7x28mm firearm. The bullet's shape and factory loading differ from conventional 40-grain polymer-tip practice alternatives in the caliber.
