Kansas City :

I’m trying to decide on a good self defense round for my 40 caliber handgun.
Is this stuff some of the best there is? http://www.hornady.com/store/40-S-and-W-165-gr-Critical-Defense/

Q: “Hornady Critical Defense Ammo. Is it any good? … Is this stuff some of the best there is?”

A: Yes and yes.

Great – you are trying to decide on a good defense round………

What other choices do you have?? Are you are willing to spend $180 for a box of 50 Glaser Safety Slugs – if so – then you need the Glaser Safety Slugs because they are much better than the Hornady Critical Defense or the Federal Personal Defense. Of course, you would need to pony up $1500 for about half a case since you need to proof and check your pistol for proper operation with these Glasers.

If you can’t afford the Glasers – then you get stuck with Hornady.

And if these Hornady are all you can afford – why bother asking this question?

Brewmeister-

Defiantly…so is DRT, and TAP, and starfire, and …………hey, whatever is in your gun when you need it is the perfect round. Thousands have perished with just your runn-o-the mill ball ammo.

Yes this is excellent personal and home defense ammunition for your handgun, it is some of the best stuff that exists.
