The .22 WMR cartridge offers a balance of low recoil and enhanced power over standard .22 LR. Hornady’s FTX design addresses key rimfire defense limitations. The polymer tip ensures the hollow point cavity remains clear to initiate uniform expansion, while the jacket’s notched construction controls the fragmentation for adequate penetration as defined by FBI protocols.
