Speer Gold Dot 45 ACP 230 Grain Hollow Point ammunition is engineered for optimal performance in personal defense and law enforcement applications. This ammunition utilizes true bonded-core bullets, crafted through Speer’s exclusive Uni-Cor bonding process that ensures a secure bond between the jacket and core, virtually eliminating core-jacket separation during expansion. The result is consistent, reliable expansion and penetration upon impact, making it a trusted choice for critical situations. Each cartridge is meticulously designed with a two-stage hollow point cavity formation, where the first stage determines expansion limits and the second controls the rate of expansion, providing precise control over terminal performance. This patented process allows Speer engineers to fine-tune each load for specific calibers and bullet weights, ensuring the bullet performs predictably in various scenarios. The smooth profile of the bullet enhances reliable feeding in semi-automatic handguns, reducing the likelihood of jams or misfires. Tested against rigorous standards established by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Gold Dot rounds have demonstrated superior penetration, expansion, and weight retention in gelatin tests, including barriers, making them a dependable choice for law enforcement and civilian defense. Packed with 20 rounds per box and 200 rounds per case, this ammunition is suitable for both professional agencies and individual shooters seeking high-quality, consistent performance from their defensive loads. Whether used in standard handguns or short-barreled firearms, Speer Gold Dot 45 ACP rounds deliver the confidence and reliability needed when every shot counts.
