Speer Gold Dot 9mm +P 124gr JHP Short Barrel Ammo - 20 Rounds

The Speer Gold Dot Personal Protection Short Barrel ammunition delivers reliable expansion and penetration specifically engineered for compact pistols and subcompact carry guns. This 9mm Luger +P load features a 124-grain bonded hollow point bullet optimized for barrels under 4 inches, where standard ammunition often fails to achieve consistent terminal performance.

What Makes This Different

Speer's Uni-Cor bonding process permanently fuses the jacket to the lead core, preventing separation during expansion. Unlike standard hollow points that may plug with clothing or fail to expand from short barrels, the Gold Dot bullet maintains its integrity while achieving 1.5x diameter expansion. The nickel-plated brass cases resist corrosion and feed smoothly in semi-automatic pistols, while the +P pressure rating delivers 1150 fps muzzle velocity from a 4-inch barrel.

Key Features

• 124-grain bonded hollow point bullet with Uni-Cor jacket-to-core bonding
• +P pressure loading optimized for 2-4 inch barrel lengths
• Nickel-plated brass cases for reliable feeding and extraction
• Consistent expansion through heavy clothing and barriers
• Low flash powder reduces muzzle signature in low-light situations
• FBI protocol tested for penetration depth of 12-18 inches in ballistic gelatin
• Compatible with all 9mm Luger chambered firearms rated for +P ammunition

Law enforcement agencies nationwide rely on Gold Dot ammunition for duty carry, validating its real-world performance under extreme conditions. The short barrel formulation maintains velocity and expansion characteristics that longer-barrel loads cannot match in compact pistols. Each cartridge undergoes rigorous quality control testing to ensure consistent ignition, accuracy, and terminal ballistics shot after shot.
