Speer Ammunition's Gold Dot line has set a new standard in handgun ammunition, with the 9mm 147 Grain Hollow Point offering exceptional performance for self-defense and law enforcement applications. This ammunition features true, bonded-core bullets created through an exclusive Uni-Cor process, which bonds the jacket to the core at the molecular level, virtually eliminating core-jacket separation during firing. Such advanced bonding ensures consistent expansion and penetration, providing reliable terminal performance when it matters most. The design incorporates a two-stage hollow point cavity formation, where the first stage determines how far the bullet can expand, and the second stage controls the expansion rate, allowing for precise tuning for each caliber and bullet weight. This meticulous engineering results in optimum expansion, penetration, and consistent weight retention, making it a dependable choice for personal protection and duty use. The bullets are finished with a smooth profile to ensure reliable feeding in semi-automatic handguns and are tested against rigorous standards, including FBI protocol tests for penetration, expansion, and weight retention in bare gelatin and barrier conditions. Each box contains 20 rounds, ideal for duty or personal defense, with cases available for bulk purchase for law enforcement or training purposes. Speer Gold Dot ammunition is trusted by professionals for its ability to deliver consistent, reliable performance in critical situations, combining advanced manufacturing techniques with proven ballistic results.
