The Wiki is very brief on this, leaving the meaning somewhat ambiguous. Can someone verify that this is correct?

AC/20 w AP Ammo hits Hardened Armour.
10 circles marked off (20 dmg total)
No automatic crit roll.
If 2 rolled for Hit Location, crit roll is unmodified.

Is that correct?

Per p. 281 Tactical Operations, your interpretation is correct.

In addition, Hardened Armor negates the bonus armor-penetrating effects of Armor-Piercing Ammo (see p. 140, TW), Tandem-Charge Missiles (see p. 372) and Tasers (see p. 345)..

Cool. Guy in my group was insisting that it meant an AC/20 would mark off 20 circles instead on 10 if you used AP vs Hardened (standard anmo vs standard armour).
