Hornady 9mm Ammo Defense 115 gr FTX and Critical Duty Ammo

[SMOKIE901 10]

I have a bunch for Hornady 9mm Ammo in Critical Defense and Critical Duty without binging in the boxes. How can I tell them apart? They all look identical. 

[Shocker 151]

Are they mixed? Or separated but unidentified? The critical duty is 135gr compared to the critical defense at 115gr so you could pull some bullets to weigh them but if all the cartridges are mixed you might be SOL

I think you could just weigh the entire round and figure out which ones are heavier.

I set my scale to the weight of one cartridge, I then found out that it was easy to tell when the heavier Critical Duty round caused the scale to tip.  This is how I sorted mine out to be certain.

Critical Duty has the Hornady H logo on the polymer tip. Critical Defense does not.

My CDefense has a way different bullet profile / ogive than my CDuty..............easy to tell apart.
