Q
David, member, from FL, United States, asked on July 18, 2020

Is this equal to hornady critical defense load

A
Answered by Silvertip1, guest, from NM, United States, on March 12, 2021

The Critical Defence handgun bullet was developed by Hornady decades after their Hydra Shok bullet, and has a plastic expander insert in the hollow point which is supposed to prevent clogging the hollow point which would keep it from expanding when the bullet passes through heavy clothing. Both the Critical Defense and Hydra Shok .380 acp loads with 90 grain bullets have the same velocities and foot pounds of energy. In my experience after 25 feet the plastic expander is more a hindrance than a plus..
