Spr Gold Dot 40sw 180gr Hp Sb 20/200

Product Overview

The Spr Gold Dot 40sw 180gr Hp Sb 20/200 is a high-performance ammunition designed for self-defense. This ammunition features a bonded core bullet, which ensures that the jacket remains bonded to the core, reducing the likelihood of core-jacket separation and improving penetration. The two-stage hollow point cavity is carefully tuned for each caliber and bullet weight to achieve optimal performance. This precision allows for consistent expansion and penetration, making it a reliable choice for personal protection.

Design and Functionality

The Spr Gold Dot 40sw 180gr Hp Sb 20/200 ammunition is designed to work in a variety of handguns, including short-barrel models. The shorter barrels require a special design to ensure reliable feeding and performance. The bullets are crafted with a shallow dish filled with a high-performance elastomer, which helps in the expansion process. On impact, the elastomer is forced into engineered internal fissures, starting the expansion process. This results in uniform expansion, better separation of the petals, and more consistent penetration across barrier types.
