Speer Gold Dot hollow point bullets use precision-cut “fault lines” in the jacket to guide expansion on impact. In other ammunition, rapid expansion often leads to loss of mass or fragmenting. Fortunately, Speer’s Gold Dot ammo undergoes their Uni-Cor bonding process that chemically connects the jacket to the lead core, holding the whole bullet together to promote weight retention and allow the bullet to penetrate deeper without sacrificing expansion.
