show me a round at the same wieght that penetrates "intermediate" barriers better, while giving positive expansion, not trying to argue, just would like to see proof of a better option
Are you serious? They market the critical defense rounds on the "perfect" expansion everytime no matter what the round is penetrating. As for the problems mentioned above, anyone notice they were all in a .357 revolver and the 2 that listed the exact ammo, was both 125 gr, I've never heard a bad thing about hornady's critical defense until now, and its isolated to one weight and caliber, i'm taking that with a grain of salt...
Here is Hornadys own description of the Critical Defense, not meant to penetrate barriers.
Additionally, Critical DEFENSE® is not intended for use in extreme (law enforcement) situations that require superior barrier performance.*
