There’s a lock on your front door. It’s a symbol of “Don’t come in here.” Sadly, some unruly types don’t understand that symbol, or disregard it entirely. That’s why Hornady Critical Defense 12 Gauge ammunition exists.
This home defender is loaded with eight pellets of 00 buckshot – not nine, like some heavier loads have, but eight, which is still plenty for neutralizing a threat at close range. The little bit of weight reduction does help to mitigate recoil, which is good, because the shell’s recoil is already frisky enough as it is. Its 1,600 fps muzzle velocity is HOT, which leaves little to chance vis-à-vis stopping power.
You would ideally have all eight of those double-aughts hit the threat. Hornady’s Versatite wad works toward creating that most favorable outcome, as it sticks with the shot column for a good distance after leaving the barrel, and finally cleanly separates from it via the air brakes surrounding its base.

Speer’s Gold Dot Short Barrel Personal Protection line of ammunition is specifically designed and tested to outperform in short barrels such as those used for concealed carry. This 45 Auto Gold Dot line of ammo was tested to perform well through the FBI tests with a short 4″ barrel.
This ammo is loaded with Gold Dot’s bonded core line of bullets perfect for a backup gun for law enforcement personnel or a concealed weapon for a licensed citizen.
Bonding the jacket to the core means the elimination of core-jacket separation and superior weight retention making it more effective than traditional hollow-point bullets in the event that the bullet encounters bone or heavy clothing upon entry. Speer’s Gold Dot ammunition is a leader in the law enforcement community for its great performance in the FBI test protocols. It performs especially well in the compound glass angle test that bullets must undergo to pass the FBI’s rigid screening requirements.
This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable nickel-plated brass cases.

This 20 ga #3 Buck Shot load manufactured by Federal in Anoka, MN is a great choice to meet your home defense needs or to bring home a prize white-tail deer.
Featuring Federal’s Triple Plus wad system, this load is designed to improve your shot alignment. Additionally, the granulated plastic buffer is designed to keep shot pellets uniform in shape resulting in a tight grouping downrange where it matters most resulting in better stopping power!

Due to supply chain issues, Hornady is temporarily loading this ammunition with standard brass cases instead of nickel-plated brass cases.
Reliable and controlled expansion, regardless of the target, every time.
Hornady Critical Defense ammunition is loaded with Hornady’s patented Flex Tip bullet. Unlike most hollow point bullets, the Flex Tip bullet features a soft polymer insert that allows for consistent and reliable expansion. Each bullet is custom designed for individual loads.
This ammunition is designed by Hornady to expand every single time. This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable brass cases.

Sellier and Bellot has been producing cartridge ammunition since 1825. Today they produce ammunition using high quality components which is used by hunters, competition shooters, law enforcement agencies and militaries around the world.
This product is brass-cased, Boxer-primed, non-corrosive, and reloadable. It is both economical and precision manufactured by one of the oldest European cartridge producers.
A “Soft Point Cutting Edge” bullet is essentially a semi-jacketed bullet designed for expansion to take down medium sized game. The jacket partially locks the lead core in place to the jacket resulting in great knockdown power on this hot load.
