Delivering effective shot patterns that place all projectiles on a man-sized target at seven yards, the Critical Defense 410 features a unique Triple Defense projectile stack consisting of two 35 Cal round balls topped with one non-jacketed FTX slug. Unique to the Critical Defense 410, the 41 caliber FTX slug actually engages the gun's rifling, and contacts the target nose-on, enabling the patented Hornady Flex Tip technology to assist in expansion for greatly enhanced terminal performance. Each 35 caliber round ball is made of high antimony, cold swaged lead to resist deformation and provide excellent penetration. Critical Defense 410 Triple Defense - you be the judge: Triple Defense projectile column, Unique 41 Cal FTX slug, (2) 35 Cal high antimony lead round balls.

These are the best defensive rounds for my Judge (3in barrel) pistol. The Henry Ax loves them too! I've shot just about every 410/45LC round out there, these are my stock up/stick to rounds. KYGUNCO's price makes it not so expensive to practice. Great place and quickly becoming my go-to for both guns and ammo.
