Hornady Critical Defense 9mm Review: Self-Defense Ammo for CCW 

Thanks for using the hellcat with your hollow point experiments. I just got one and you're the only guy doing experiments with the exact model I have. Thank you! I'll most likely get the 115 hornady rounds!

Hornady should be producing Critical Defense with Nickel plated cases again. They claim it being temporary. Come on Hornady and start producing.

Just picked up a couple boxes for my Shield Plus.

Very nicely done! Not too many short barrel HP vids out there. Bravo!

I like Hornady, carried it in my .45ACP Springfield XDE & 1911, and in my .40 XDM. As good as it is, I switched to Underwood Extreme Defender. In a few years, some ammo company will make something even better & I'll try that out - and IF I really like it, I may switch yet again. Ammo evolves just like guns do; 9mm being the best example.

I used to use this till the switched to brass without lowering the price. Since then I use Federal HST

Got it and I also recommend Hornady Critical Duty and the Speer Gold Dot "Carry Gun" G2 9mm 135 gr. HP, for the win. If you can find it; and this is for self defense.

I like the longer format a lot better! Mostly everywhere you go there is some CD ammo available. Nice to know it works for its intended purpose.

Very good informative video. Thanks for using a more common self defense barrel length in this test. After much research my 9mm self defense ammo for my Ruger Max-9 is Critical Defense Lite

I carry a beretta 92fs loaded with critical defense and I sleep well every night with it under my pillow

Do you have one for the critical duty?

Realy great video

Lol I just seen some federal punch that said it was made for the hellcat right on the box and they were clear about it. Why are you promoting hornady now?
