| Description: | Speer®, complete with a fresh new look, continues to offer the best options for law enforcement, personal protection, handgun hunting and training ammunition. Based on the performance and track record of the legendary Speer Gold Dot® Ammunition, which continues its dominance of the law enforcement community, Speer has proven its reliability for tough jobs. This reputation has made it the #1 duty ammunition on the market today. To put it simply—it’s the best. Just last year we re-introduced this fine ammunition in three user-friendly categories: Speer Gold Dot Personal Protection, Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel Personal Protection and Speer Gold Dot Handgun Hunting. Speer also continues its line of training ammunition with Lawman® and Lawman Clean-Fire® ammunition. For Gold Dot-like ballistics and serious training, Lawman remains the best choice. Whatever category fits you, we’ve got the best choice for your needs. |

I have seen this ammo put through a demo when rounds were dropped into a tank of water and left for several hours. It was then taken out and loaded and shot without any feed jams or any problems.

I too am a big fan of Speer Gold Dot ammunition. While I wouldn't feel underserved by any of the major ammunition companies personal defense ammo, when I'm spending my money I'm looking for Gold Dot's.

The .40 does really well in my Glock, and i've never had a problem there, however, my Springfield 1911 does NOT like this ammo one bit. I checked the tolerances...all fine. Extractor...just fine. Magazines...all fine. I can't seem to find a problem with my weapon so i'm thinking it has to be the round. I'm wondering if there's an over-expansion issue with the casing. Anyway, overall, I like the ammo and i'm not going to knock it one bit. It just doesn't do all that great in my .45.

We have been using this product in my department. We usually shoot 2000-3000 rounds a day. We haven't had really any problems. A few inverted bullets but no high primers or cracked cases. I don't have any knowledge of our ballistics testing. But, a hollow point is a hollow point. Penetration and expansion.

I get this brand for two of the weapons our guys shoot. 45ACP 230gr and 40S&W 165gr
We use regular velocity and have had good accuracy and no failures when the weapons are properly maintained. Since no malfunctions have occured it is unknown how dirty we could shoot it. Tested them with gelatin against windshield glass and various levels of clothing and since it's bonded together very little seperation if any. There was a little bit of cavity filling with clothing but was very hit or miss so unknown when it would come in.- Flag as inappropriate

Speer Gold Dot 147GDHP is the best ammo you can feed your pistol. For personal defense (i.e. maximum stopping power) it is the only viable option for a 9mm.

Theres no magic bullet out there but this round is kinda close. during the time detroit used this ammo it was effective. Bullet expansion and stopping power worked and it got the job done. couple of incidents with car doors and bumpers but again theres no magic bullet. thank god! detroit is going back to it.

This is our Dept. issued ammo too, and I've never heard of it "not" stopping an assialant shooting at brother's in blue. However, one instance i worried about was a deputy was firing through the back of a unit, (to save my butt), it penetrated the window, but not the cage. I still carry this ammo off duty though, never had any problems with it

These rounds shot and functioned well in my .45 1911. However, if you have to frequently unload and reload the rounds, I found the bullet actually was forced down into the casing after rechambering several times. Beware.
