Speer Gold Dot G2: Too Soon To Buy In?

[GJM]

Man, I just got me some G2, and now I am thinking of leaving that platform.

If you can shoot, it's going to do it's job.

Until we have rounds that aim themselves, that seems to me precisely what you want in a bullet.

Did you purchase the large box that small box came in?

How is a bullet a platform? Phrasing.

Relax, it's GJM. He's probably metatrolling.

Good example of why the test media matters.

[Dagga Boy]

Strongly concur.

One reason is that I have never seen a failure on the street with a bullet that is good in the 4LD testing.

Another being that sometimes real shootings have HEAVY clothing.....
One of my friend's at work shot a robbery suspect after a chase from the scene, the bad guy was wearing Carhart coveralls, a denim jacket, flannel shirt, long john top, and a T-shirt. It was almost zero and in a snowstorm when this incident happened. Worst case bullet clogging scenario, combined with low temps to reduce velocity, yet both of the 124gr +P Gold Dots expanded perfectly while giving more than sufficient penetration.

Ditto on the above.....even in SoCal. Our first HST shooting was glass and then a bunch of layers....DRT and the recovered round looked like a federal ad. For now I am good with my HST's in the heavy weights per caliber.

Have the rounds that were put out and issued been recalled? I just noticed that Doc pulled it from his list as well.
