Speer Gold Dot LE Duty 380 ACP 90 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point 50/box Ammunition
Speer's 380 Auto LE Gold Dot line of JHP defense ammunition is a great personal defense load with its reputation for barrier penetration.
Speer Gold Dot Ammunition is loaded with bonded core bullets and is designed for critical defense needs.
Bonding the jacket to the core means the elimination of core-jacket separation and superior weight retention making it more effective than traditional hollow-point bullets in the event that the bullet encounters bone or heavy clothing upon entry. Speer's Gold Dot ammunition is a market share leader in the law enforcement community because of its great performance in the FBI test protocols. It performs especially well in being able to retain its mass when penetrating through auto-glass which is one of the most difficult portions of the FBI test.
Designed for Law Enforcement and occasionally made available to the general public through police trade-ins; this ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer primed, reloadable nickel-plated brass cases.

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
Designed by John Browning, the 380 ACP (9mm Browning Short, 9x17) was introduced by Colt in 1908 and by FN in Europe in 1912. The 380 ACP is much more potent than the 32 ACP and is essentially the world-standard personal defense cartridge for pocket and purse-sized semiautomatic pistols. Bullet diameter is 9mm (.356-inch) with case length of .68-inch. Standard bullet weights vary, but most common are bullets of 85 to 95 grains at velocities from around 900 to 1000 feet per second. More important is recent bullet technology, with modern expanding bullets offering greatly enhanced performance over the full metal jacket bullets of John Browning's day. 380 ACP ammunition is offered by all makers of pistol ammo, and the cartridge is chambered by virtually all makers of small to mid-sized pistols. The 380 ACP is comfortable to shoot in medium-sized pistols, but the smallest 380s currently available can be snappy for inexperienced shooters. —
