What Makes Speer Gold Dot 5.7x28mm Special

• Bonded-Core Technology: Speer’s exclusive Uni-Cor process bonds the jacket to the core one molecule at a time. Eliminates core-jacket separation (the #1 cause of handgun bullet failures). Superior weight retention and controlled expansion.

• 40 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point: Optimized bullet weight for 5.7x28mm. Balances velocity, expansion, and penetration. Ideal for personal protection, home defense, and duty use.

• Patented Two-Step Cavity Formation: Hollow point cavity is formed in two stages. First stage establishes maximum expansion diameter. Second stage controls expansion rate. Engineered for optimal performance in every caliber and bullet weight.

• Nickel-Plated Brass Cases: Highest quality brass with nickel plating. Smooth feeding, corrosion resistance, and easy chambering. Critical for defensive situations where reliability matters.

• Boxer Primers: Reliable, consistent ignition. Boxer-primed cases are also reloadable for handloaders.

• Law Enforcement Trusted: Gold Dot is the #1 duty ammunition choice for law enforcement agencies across America and worldwide. Proven in real-world defensive encounters.

• Personal Protection Line: Same performance as law enforcement loads. Designed for concealed carry, home defense, and personal protection.

• Reloadable Brass: Nickel-plated brass cases are reloadable. Handloaders can extend their ammo supply and customize loads.

• 1000-Round Case: Bulk packaging for serious shooters. Enough ammo for training, stockpiling, or group purchases. Better per-round pricing than individual boxes.
