Law enforcement agencies around the world trust Speer’s Gold Dot ammunition for the consistency of its performance and its projectile’s ability to expand reliably even after having passed through a variety of common urban barriers. This 40 S&W cartridge’s 180 grain bullet comprises an alloyed lead core which has been closely bonded to its uniformly thick jacket via an electrochemical process — as the result, it is able to retain nearly all of its weight during penetration in order to produce a gaping and thoroughly debilitating wound cavity. This speed at and width to which the Gold Dot reliably expands makes it tremendously effective for personal and home defense.
If you have to perform a fast chamber check in a dark environment, then you’ll appreciate how this round’s shiny nickel plated brass casing facilitates the action. That nickel plating further promotes smooth cycling in a semi-automatic weapon and provides superior resistance to corrosion. This round’s propellant delivers a remarkably consistent chamber pressure and muzzle velocity, and its non-corrosive CCI primer can be depended upon to provide ignition.
