Speer Gold Dot G2 45 Acp G2 230 Grain 20 Rounds

The Speer Gold Dot G2 Pistol Ammo 45 ACP +P 230 gr G2 brings law-enforcement-grade terminal performance to civilian self-defense and home protection, combining the Gold Dot series reputation with a next-generation shallow-dish nose packed with elastomer to initiate uniform expansion and consistent penetration through common barriers. This 45 ACP +P load delivers a 230 grain G2 bullet at about 950 fps and roughly 461 ft-lbs of energy from full-size handguns, offering the controlled upset and reliable jacket-to-core retention that put Gold Dot ammunition at the top of FBI testing protocols. If you carry for personal defense, outfit a duty pistol, or keep a bedside handgun for home defense, this round's structural-plated pressure-formed core and jacket design reduce the risk of jacket-core separation and produce predictable wound channels across clothing and intermediate barriers. Made in the United States with brass casings and engineered for higher-pressure (+P) service in pistols rated for that pressure, the Gold Dot G2 line is a trusted choice for shooters who want consistent expansion, dependable penetration, and law-enforcement-proven performance in self-defense 45 ACP applications.
