Customer Reviews for Hornady Critical Defense 380 ACP Ammo 90gr FTX 25 Round Box

Product shipped quickly and was received in a timely manner. Thanks Buds 👍

Good ammo. No real kickback.

Recently started carrying a .380 pocket pistol and did a good deal of research on self-defense ammo to load it with. Hornady Critical Defense 380 ACP Ammo 90gr FTX was a regular in positive reviews, Bud's had a great price and I purchased numerous boxes. I didn't do any ballistic tests as I'd seen enough to satisfy my interest but I was interested in how well it functioned and it's accuracy. I am happy to say it fed through both my pocket .380's and extracted without any issues, there were no failures to fire. Recoil management was not an issue at all and accuracy through both was very good at 12 yards. It shoots very clean as well with little residue left after using. This is an excellent round from a major manufacturer that instills confidence as self-protection insurance. I would highly recommend it and will be buying it again when needed.

This is the only ammo I trust for self defense in 380 ACP, based upon ballistic gel tests. It's not just about penetration, it's also about expansion and consistency. That's very difficult to do in 380, but this ammo passes the test.

Awesome service! Great prices! Thanks again

Awesome price and very easy delivery. I would recommend Buds!

If you are going to shoot a low power round, then use the best ammo. I believe this is and Bud's had a good price and fast service.

Great ammo and fast shipping!!

Works great in both my Rugers.

I am happy to say never HAD the need to shoot a person but used for practice and never had a misfire or a round jam. I carry these rounds on me all the time on all my 3 magazines. Cost is reasonable considering their quality and performance.

shoots great perfect ammo

got a new pew pew and needed some self defense ammo for it. I carry the same ammo in my 9mm pew pews and it has always worked for me.

This amo is very good for my 380 and the price is just wright

I haven’t shot them yet, just stocking up.

One of the few self defense rounds I trust.

Works well in my lcp, would buy again

I bought to use as self-defense round for a Beretta 80X. According to the ballistics test by Lucky Gunner this was the best self-defense round for penetration. I shot 50 rounds at the range to see how it works with the Beretta and there were no problems.

I really like this ammo. Buds had it when I needed it.

Being a victim of California's ridiculous restrictions it is great to have Bud's as a reliable and inexpensive source of ammo. Love ya Bud's!

This ammo makes a 380 a very strong self-defense round a d buds has the best prices

Smooth with no issues. Thanks again Buds

Awesome ammo!! Works like a champ. Very smooth shooting. Buds is the best place to get it. They always do a great job. Very easy to order and shipping is fast. Highly recommend!!

Functions flawlessly in my Karr 380.

Hornady Critical Defense for my EDC 380 make it a more potent weapon. Some say 380 isn't a heavy enough round. What Hornady has done with these high tech rounds is make it suitable for Defense....thank you Buds again for getting them to me in a few days..oh and on sale still a expensive round but for defensive use its worth a couple bucks more.

No issues whatsoever. Works in all of my firearms.
