Speer Gold Dot Handgun Bullets 10mm .400" 200gr 100/pk

Speer Gold Dot handgun bullets in 10mm .400" 200gr are purpose-built projectiles engineered for law enforcement, defensive carry, and serious shooters who demand consistent terminal performance. These jacketed hollow-point rounds represent the gold standard in controlled expansion, trusted by tactical professionals and duty-bearers for decades. The 10mm platform—with its superior velocity and energy retention—pairs ideally with heavy, premium projectiles to maximize stopping potential in high-stress scenarios where reliability cannot be compromised.

The Gold Dot design features a bonded, lead-core construction that ensures the jacket and core remain unified through bone and heavy barriers, preventing fragmentation and energy loss that compromise effectiveness. The hollow-point cavity is precisely engineered to initiate expansion at 10mm velocities while maintaining adequate penetration depth—typically 12–18 inches in ballistic gelatin—necessary to reach vital organs through intermediate barriers like clothing and vehicle glass. The 200-grain weight provides superior sectional density, allowing the projectile to maintain velocity downrange and resist deflection, critical factors in real-world encounters where shots are rarely taken under ideal conditions.

This ammunition performs optimally in modern 10mm handguns—including duty and compact platforms from Glock, Kimber, S&W, and other major manufacturers—and is equally suited for hunting medium game and precision target work. The 100-round pack provides sufficient volume for practice reloads and duty rotation while maintaining ammunition freshness. Shooters relying on 10mm for self-defense or professional use should verify function through their specific firearm before duty carry, though Gold Dot's reputation for reliable feeding and firing in quality 10mm platforms is well-established across law enforcement and military communities.
