Hornady Critical Defense ammunition in .32 H&R Magnum (brand part no. 90060) is built for shooters who carry this round for personal or home defense. Hornady backs this load with the quality control shooters expect from a name they already trust. At the heart of this load is the 80 gr bullet with a flex tip (FTX) design, matched to the .32 H&R Magnum platform shooters already run. In our handgun ammunition lineup, this is the Hornady load built for that job.

Key Specifications

• The caliber is .32 H&R Magnum, one of the most carried, most available cartridges for the platform.
• The bullet weighs 80 gr, sized for the terminal performance this load is built around.
• The projectile is a Flex Tip (FTX) design, engineered to expand and transfer energy on impact.
• The case is Brass, the standard for reliable extraction and smooth reloading.
• Each box holds 25 rounds, enough to work with before needing to reorder.
• Cases ship 10 boxes to a case, a useful case size for stocking a range or defensive supply.
• Cost works out to about $1.32 per round, affordable enough to shoot as much as you train.
• The box ships at approximately 0.57 lbs, worth knowing before you check out on a multi-box order.
• This is a centerfire cartridge, ignited by a replaceable primer rather than a rimfire priming ring.
• Critical Defense’s FTX bullet uses a soft polymer tip that prevents clothing or other material from clogging the hollow-point cavity, so it expands reliably even through a barrier.
• Nickel-plated cases resist corrosion and make a chamber check easier to read in low light, a detail Hornady builds into every Critical Defense load.
