223 Rem - 55 Grain Gold Dot Soft Point - Speer Gold Dot - 20 Rounds

Speer has developed a great reputation with both its Lawman and Gold Dot lines of ammunition. This 223 Remington version of its Gold Dot bullet is no exception. Each round is loaded with a 55 grain soft point bullet and is meant for law enforcement purposes. That makes this 223 Remington Gold Dot ammo a great option for home defense or for hunting large varmints like coyote. This ammo has an advertised muzzle velocity of 3,220 feet per second, and it will have terrific and controlled expansion whether shot from a 16 inch or a 20 in barrel. This ammo is great for use out of ARs and out of bolt action rifles. Speer is known for premium ammunition for self defense, law enforcement, range training and competition shooting. Their ammo is for accuracy and consistency, and the Gold Dot line is considered by many to be the best self defense round available.

45 ACP - 155 Grain RHT Frangible - Speer Lawman - 50 Rounds

Even the most cautious shooter is subject to certain dangers when they train. Shooting at steel targets and against hard backdrops presents a real risk of splash-back, where copper and lead fragments ricochet back to do serious damage. Splash-back is also a common problem at indoor ranges, where poor ventilation may also cause toxic lead to linger in a carcinogenic haze! But Speer’s Lawman line of ammunition works to make all those risks moot. This 45 ACP cartridge features Speer’s 155 grain Reduced Hazard Training projectile. The frangible bullet is comprised of 100 percent compressed copper particles, which are hardened but not fused together in a process called sintering. The RHT accordingly stays intact as it feeds and fires, but crushes itself into powder when it slaps a steel target or other hard surface. And in conjunction with this round’s heavy metal free Clean-Fire primer, the RHT poses no threat of producing airborne lead that could have accumulated indoors. This round’s lightweight bullet grants it a fast muzzle velocity, although you will find Speer’s training ammo reliably mimics many other conventional self-defense loads. Speer gives their RHT a distinctive pattern on its tip for easy identification, and complements it with a new brass case and clean burning propellant for superior functionality in a semi-auto.
