Speer product overview
Speer describes the Gold Dot line as a benchmark for self-defense and duty use that has earned the trust of law enforcement worldwide. According to Speer:
- The pressure-formed lead core is bonded to a uniform jacket (Uni-Cor process), which Speer states virtually eliminates jacket/core separation on impact for retained weight and penetration.
- The Gold Dot hollow-point design is engineered to expand consistently through the full range of barriers.
- Nickel-plated cases and sealed primers are specified for reliable ignition and cycling.
These are Speer’s published statements, presented for reference. Independent ballistic-gel tests of Gold Dot are widely available for third-party results.
