Description
22 Win Mag 45 grain FTX ammo from Hornady Critical Defense gives rimfire shooters a Flex Tip hollow point load in a bulk 1,000-round case. Each 83200 round uses a 45-grain FTX projectile with nickel-plated brass casing and rimfire-primed construction.
Hornady lists this load at 1,000 fps with 100 ft-lbs of muzzle energy from a 1.875-inch test barrel. The FTX bullet uses a flexible polymer insert to help initiate expansion and reduce hollow point clogging, while low-flash propellants support short-barrel defensive-use performance.
Each case includes 20 boxes of 50 rounds, giving buyers enough ammunition for function testing, familiarization, range practice, and keeping one consistent .22 WMR load on hand. The nickel-plated casing also improves corrosion resistance and visibility during chamber checks.
Compared with lighter 30-grain or 40-grain .22 WMR varmint loads, this Hornady 83200 option is built around a heavier 45-grain FTX bullet and short-barrel Critical Defense performance. For related options, browse 22 Mag Ammo, Bulk Rimfire Ammo, and Hornady Ammunition.
