The .30 Super Carry represents a modern approach to personal protection, and Hornady's Critical Defense load delivers the reliability you need when it matters most.
Flex Tip Technology Hornady's patented Flex Tip design eliminates the clogging and inconsistency that plague traditional hollow point bullets. The polymer tip material—the same proven compound used in Hornady's LEVERevolution rifle ammunition—ensures consistent, reliable expansion across a wide range of barriers and velocities.
Optimized for Modern Carry Guns Loaded to 1250 fps, this 100-grain load is specifically designed for the shorter barrels found in modern compact carry pistols. Premium low-flash propellants deliver proven performance without the muzzle flash that can disrupt your vision in defensive situations.
Practical Design Details Nickel-plated cases provide increased visibility in low-light conditions—a practical advantage when you need to account for every round. The ammunition is loaded to deliver reliable expansion and dependable terminal performance, the foundation of any serious self-defense load.
Critical Defense ammunition represents the evolution of hollow point technology—designed by shooters, for shooters who understand that reliability in a defensive firearm is non-negotiable.
