Speer Gold Dot 9mm 147gr HP Personal Protection

Speer Gold Dot: The Standard for Personal Protection

Speer Gold Dot ammunition represents the gold standard in personal defense ammunition—literally the choice of law enforcement agencies worldwide. This 9mm load delivers the performance you need when it matters most.

Engineering Excellence

What sets Gold Dot apart is Speer's proprietary Uni-Cor bonding process. Rather than relying on conventional methods, Speer bonds the jacket to the lead core one molecule at a time during the initial stages of bullet construction. This virtually eliminates core-jacket separation, ensuring maximum retained weight and consistent penetration to critical depths.

Precision Hollow Point Design

The hollow point cavity is engineered through a patented two-stage formation process:

• First stage establishes maximum expansion potential
• Second stage controls the rate of expansion for optimal performance

This meticulous engineering ensures each 147-grain bullet expands reliably and consistently, whether it encounters bare tissue or common barriers like clothing, drywall, or automotive glass.

Proven Performance

Every Gold Dot load meets the rigorous testing protocols established by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for service-class handgun cartridges. These demanding tests evaluate penetration depth, expansion characteristics, and retained weight in both bare gelatin and barrier-protected scenarios.
