Description
Speer Gold Dot .45 ACP 230 grain Gold Dot Hollow Point ammunition is built for reliable feeding in semi-automatic handguns, with a load tuned for short barrels. Speer uses a bonded-core design intended to help prevent core-jacket separation, and it forms the hollow point cavity in two stages to manage expansion and penetration. It is produced for performance-focused service-class handgun cartridge testing, including penetration, expansion, and retained weight in bare gelatin and gelatin with common barriers. Each box contains 20 rounds.
