223 Rem - 62 Grain SP - Speer Gold Dot LE - 20 Rounds
With more new firearm owners these days than ever before, we’re very often asked this question: “What’s the best ammo for self-defense with an AR-15?” And now that we’re lucky enough to have it in stock, we can refer the fine people asking that question to this ammo right here. Speer makes this 223 Rem cartridge in Lewiston, Idaho for law enforcement officers, but you don’t need a badge to order it. What makes this round most special is its 62 grain Gold Dot soft point bullet. That bullet has an electrochemically bonded jacket. This means the jacket was applied to its alloyed lead core one single molecule at a time, which makes it (A) super balanced for accurate flight, and (B) pretty much inseparable during penetration, ensuring that the Gold Dot bullet retains the momentum it needs to pass through barriers as strong as auto glass and still dig its way deep into a target. As a soft point, this Gold Dot bullet is even better optimized for self-defense. It will reliably expand and tumble about in soft tissue to create a very nasty injury – the kind that stops a threat dead in their tracks. This bullet delivers terminal expansion even after it has flown up to 200 yards away, and it is also highly effective when fired from a short barrel rifle. This round’s 3,000 fps muzzle velocity (out of a 24 inch barrel) is standard for its caliber and bullet weight, and its aerodynamic bullet keeps retains nearly half of that velocity 500 yards out. Its propellant is formulated to create reduced muzzle flash upon ignition – that’s important if you would ever fire this ammo in the dark, as it will keep bright light from destroying your night vision. This round also features a nickel-plated brass case, which naturally resists corrosion and helps to prevent a life-threatening jam. It’s all expertly put together, tested according to strict quality control protocol, and ready to live in your magazine. Your personal safety is too important to entrust to a lesser cartridge.
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.
