The Speer Gold Dot is the world's most trusted law enforcement and self-defense bullet, featuring Uni-Cor bonded construction that electrochemically fuses the jacket to the core. This patented process prevents jacket-core separation during penetration, ensuring optimal weight retention and consistent expansion across velocity ranges. The distinctive two-stage bullet geometry provides reliable feeding and deep penetration. Gold Dot bullets consistently meet or exceed FBI protocol testing standards and are used by more law enforcement agencies than any other ammunition. Available from .380 ACP to .45 Colt, they are ideal for personal protection and duty use.
