Speer Gold Dot 40 S&W 180gr GDHP Short Barrel Ammunition /20

Speer Gold Dot 40 S&W 180gr GDHP Short Barrel Ammunition /20

Speer's Gold Dot Short Barrel Personal Protection line of ammunition is specifically designed and tested to outperform in short barrels such as those used for concealed carry. This 40 S&W Gold Dot line of ammo was tested to perform well through the FBI tests with a short 3.5" barrel.

This ammo is loaded with Gold Dot's bonded core line of bullets perfect for a backup gun for law enforcement personnel or a concealed weapon for a licensed citizen.

Bonding the jacket to the core means the elimination of core-jacket separation and superior weight retention making it more effective than traditional hollow-point bullets in the event that the bullet encounters bone or heavy clothing upon entry. Speer's Gold Dot ammunition is a leader in the law enforcement community for its great performance in the FBI test protocols. It performs especially well in the compound glass angle test that bullets must undergo to pass the FBI's rigid screening requirements.

This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable nickel-plated brass cases.

About the Manufacturer:

Speer’s reputation for making the world's finest component bullets and loaded ammunition goes all the way back to 1943. That’s when Vernon Speer started building bullets because reloaders couldn't get the components they needed from ammo companies during World War II. Although he initially focused on hunting rifle bullets, he also built the first mass-produced jacketed handgun bullets for hunting and law enforcement. In the 1960s, he put some of those bullets into loaded ammunition in the now-famous Lawman line. And today, Speer Gold Dot is the most trusted duty ammunition for law enforcement. We offer the same loads to civilians for personal protection that’s simply beyond compare. We still manufacture our products in the small city of Lewiston, Idaho. The original product lines have been expanded and new ones added. But through the changes, our formula for success has been constant: Determination, self-reliance and independence that show in all of our ammunition and components.
