Meeting the FBI protocol handgun ammunition terminal performance test requirements is no small task – especially with a bullet as large as .45 caliber – but Hornady engineers have succeeded! Featuring the 220 grain FlexLock® bullet, the Critical Duty 45 Auto+P delivers industry leading performance through all FBI established urban barriers.

The FlexLock® bullet features the Hornady exclusive Flex Tip® technology that prevents bullet clogging while enhancing barrier penetration and terminal performance. A massive jacket-to-core InterLock® band is used to lock the jacket and core together for high weight retention. Additionally, all Critical Duty® loads feature low-flash propellants and nickel plated cartridge cases with sealed primers and case mouths.

Law enforcement and tactical professionals now have a truly advanced, 21st century handgun ammunition solution that delivers the most consistent and reliable urban barrier performance ever created! The proven Flex Tip® design of the new FlexLock® bullet eliminates clogging and aids bullet expansion. Its large mechanical jacket-to-core InterLock® band works to keep the bullet and core from separating for maximum weight retention and proven terminal performance through all FBI test barriers.
