Hornady Critical Duty .40 S&W Ballistic / Flex Tip

Description

Product Overview

Hornady Critical Duty .40 S&W ammunition uses a 175-grain FlexLock projectile engineered for consistent expansion and penetration through common urban barriers. The Flex Tip design helps prevent clogging while the InterLock band helps keep the jacket and core together for reliable weight retention. Each cartridge uses a nickel-plated brass case, sealed primer, sealed case mouth, and temperature-stable low-flash propellant. This 500-round case is suited to law enforcement, tactical training, and defensive ammunition needs. The published muzzle velocity is 1015 feet / second, producing approximately 400 foot-pounds of muzzle energy.
