Company representatives at Speer Ammunition received this award during a special reception at the 153rd NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits, held at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center, on Friday, May 17, 2024, in Dallas, Texas.
“Because of a surge in popularity of pistol-caliber carbines (PCC), and an end-user desire to use them for personal protection, we created this new load,” said Nick Sachse, Speer Ammunition's Director of Handgun Product Management. “For it, we updated our Gold Dot G2-style bullet so that it achieves optimized terminal performance, accuracy, and function in carbine platforms. We’ve also made sure it’s still a capable load in full-size handguns, to allow for flexibility in use.”
The Gold Dot’s construction and Uni-core bonding create a very robust bullet that performs well at the higher velocities that come from carbine-length rifle barrels. The Speer Gold Dot G2-style, elastomer-filled bullet nose is tuned to produce extremely effective penetration and expansion through common barriers. As a result, Gold Dot Carbine produces ideal velocities through carbine-length barrels and cycles flawlessly.
The 2024 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits showcased over 14 acres of the latest guns and gear throughout the weekend event. Learn more at: www.nraam.org.
