Speer Gold Dot 9mm Luger 115-grain Jacketed Hollow Point ammunition (part no. 53614GD) is one of the most trusted defensive rounds on the market, built by Speer and carried by police departments across the country. The Gold Dot bullet uses a bonded core-to-jacket construction, electroplating the jacket directly onto the lead core so the two stay together on impact instead of separating like a traditional pressed hollow point. That bonded design gives it a reputation for reliable expansion and consistent penetration through common barriers, which is exactly why so many agencies issue it as duty ammunition. At 115 grains, this is a fast-moving, lighter-for-caliber loading built for quick energy transfer.
