Speer Gold Dot Carry Gun ammunition is engineered for reliable performance from compact pistols and everyday carry platforms. The load uses Speer’s bonded Gold Dot construction with a pressure-formed core and plated jacket to reduce core-jacket separation and improve retained weight. The Carry Gun profile features the Gold Dot G2 shallow-dish nose filled with an elastomer to initiate controlled expansion and promote consistent performance across common barriers. These rounds are new-production, non-corrosive, boxer-primed, and use nickel-plated brass cases.
