BON DE D GO LD DOT CONSTRU CTION

We take hours to make a Gold Dot bullet for the split-second you might need it. Our exclusive manufacturing process gives us the flexibility to match bullet design to cartridge performance. Our bonding happens at the beginning of the bullet making process, exactly where it should. We form the hollow point cavity in two stages to give our engineers incredible control in the design process. Each bullet caliber and weight is tuned for optimum expansion and penetration.

The Speer Gold Dot bullet begins with an alloyed lead core.

Gold Dot technology bonds an incredibly uniform jacket to the core one molecule at a time.

First stage of patented two-stage hollow point process creates memory lines that expansion can follow.

Second forming stage finishes the cavity to match bullet weight and velocity, producing a smooth leading edge for reliable feeding, and a uniform heel for superb accuracy.

Bullet and case are assembled using top-quality nickel-plated brass cases, clean-burning, low-flash propellants, and famous, reliable CCI primers.

TESTED. PROVEN. TRUSTED. GOLD DOT

Performance you can count on, every time. We know you can count on Gold Dot , because we hold it to the highest of standards. We make sure that it will excel in stringent handgun ammunition tests developed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for serviceclass handgun cartridges. Look below for an example of Gold Dot results. The load is a 9mm Luger 124-grain +P Gold Dot. The numbers tell you that this load, like all Gold Dot offerings, is an excellent performer.

PERFORMANCE YOU CAN TRUST

Speer Gold Dot ammunition remains one of the most trusted lines for self and home defense. This reputation comes from years of proven performance with law enforcement personnel around the world. When the stakes are high, Gold Dot comes through. Just as Speer has ammunition designed for the most intense situations, we also have affordable Lawman training options. Through constant research, development and new product introduction, Speer is dedicated to offering ammunition that meets every demand.

Here, Gold Dot shows optimum penetration and expansion through bare gelatin.

Keep an eye out for Gold Dot Personal Protection available in centerfire rifle. The same Gold Dot construction process is used for these options. The .30 Carbine is a very popular caliber, and makes sense for home defense. New in 2010, these loads are accurate, tough and ideal for stopping an immediate threat.

GOLD DOT SHORT BARREL PERSONAL PROTECTION

At one time, packing a snub-nosed revolver or compact semi-auto meant sacrificing performance. It also limited ammunition selection. Speers successful introduction of Short Barrel ammunition has changed that. It is designed to work in barrels as small as 2 inches and both law enforcement and private citizens have found these loads very impressive. Theyre designed to provide less kick, and will get reliable expansion and performance at a variety of distances and velocities. Look for our GOLD DOT SHORT new .22 Win. Mag. offering.

LAWMAN CLEAN-FIRE TRAINING

Lawman Clean-Fire ammunition gives shooters ideal indoor options. These offerings all use the patented Clean-Fire primer that contains no lead, barium or antimony. And the bullet we load in all of these is Speers trusty TMJ. This means the lead core is completely encased so that powder gases cant burn lead off the bullet base. Range air, and your firearm, will be much cleaner when you shoot these special loads.

Non-corrosive CCI primers for highly sensitive and reliable ignition.

Consistent: Clean burning propellants deliver optimum velocity while ensuring consistent chamber pressures.

*Handgun Trajectory: bullet path relative to line-of-sight when sighted for 25 yards (sight height 0.9 inches). Test barrels are used to determine ballistic figures. Individual firearms may vary. These figures are approximate and are shown for reference. V = Vented test barrel simulating revolver performance. If using a scoped handgun use ballistic software package RCBS.load to compute bullet drop. **Rifle Trajectory: These trajectory tables were calculated by computer using the best available data for each load. Trajectories are representative of the nominal behavior of each load at standard conditions (59F temperature; barometric pressure of 29.53 inches; altitude at sea level). Shooters are cautioned that actual trajectories may differ due to variations in altitude, atmospheric conditions, guns, sights and ammunition.
