Speer Ammo For Sale
History of Speer Ammo
With a talent for all things mechanical, Richard “Dick” Speer started CCI (Cascade Cartridge, Inc.) in 1951, after realizing his brother Vernon’s success with Speer Bullets. Dick’s experience as a machinist at Boeing Aircraft’s Seattle plant gave him the ability to produce quality cases, which began in a small room at his brother’s Speer Bullets plant.
Speer and his partner Arvid Nelson eventually discovered a demand for component primers, which were in short supply after WWII. With the intention of building primers for hobby reloaders, their first shipment was actually to fulfill a military contract. Speer went on to create non-corrosive and non-mercuric sporting cartridges for reloaders.
Rising popularity led Speer to purchase a large chicken ranch just a mile from his brother’s plant. With a farmhouse for an office and a renovated chicken coop for a production facility, Speer added manufacturing buildings and expanded the product line. This farm-turned-plant continues to produce ammunition to this day.
Today, Speer Ammunition is a subsidiary of Vista Outdoor and is known for its effectiveness in personal defense and training. The iconic Gold Dot® line is touted as the number-one load for law enforcement, and the same performance can be found in Gold Dot Personal Protection and Short Barrel®. In 2009, it was reported that a $14 million contract provided Speer Gold Dot 9mm ammo to all 250,000 police officers in France – along with French Gendarmerie, French Customs, and French Corrections.

These rounds are almost perfect, have fired over 2k rounds of this particular round and not one misfire or bad round. The downside is that the round is silver colored instead of gold colored, and if that is all I have to complain about, well enough said.

So far I’ve tried a lot of range ammo in the last couple of months. Speer seems to be the most consistent ammo I’ve shot. Never mind the fact that it is one of the cleanest I’ve used. One of the only brands that doesn’t leave the end of my gun dirty after firing 400 rounds, anyway. By end of the gun I mean exterior of the grip module and barrel. I never had a malfunction with this brand either. Mag dump after mag dump led to a great time and not a single issue. If this ammo was any cheaper it would be my go to ammo every range day. The only reason why it doesn’t have 5 stars for the quality rating is due to it coming in with light brown spots on every bullet. However it did cycle and shoot the best out of other range ammo’s that I’ve tried.

No misfires and consiistant performance with two different handguns (Beretta Storm9 sub & S&WM&P9). This ammo exceeded my expectations - glad I got 1000 rounds. I'll get more. Delivered in two days.

I'm in no way an expert but I've fired 100 rounds of this ammo so far and am pleased with my purchase 4 inch grouping at 10 yards with my glock 37 which isn't bad for a 45. The ammo does smoke a little but there were no misfires, jams or duds.

I’m a new buyer to this website and the customer service is extraordinary. This is the cheapest you can find gold dots and they were on my doorstep 2 days later which is why I’m returning now. You can’t go wrong with gold dots. Excellent ammo and very accurate.

Brizzo said:
Good quality ammo. It worked well with my SD9VE. Smooth cycle. I don’t recommend this as you’re primary ammo at the range because it has a lot of recoil/snap. After a couple magazines I could feel my hand and wrist getting tired. Overall, I would buy it again.

WESMAK said:
Speer is the best ammo I have used. A lot of it is made in the Great Northwest, so with the ammo shortage and everyone hard up for ANY ammo, I'm happy to be using ammo made in America as well. I also like this ammo's total metal jacket (TMJ) which limits lead exposure. Never had a FTF with Speer. Great Stuff!

Not the cheapest ammo out there but does the job 100% of the time for me. I figure if the times comes for lethal force I only want ammo I can count on.

I ended up placing an order during the pandemic and couldn’t have had a better ammo buying experience. Not only were they the only company with Gold Dot in stock, they also had it to me within just a few days! The order was exactly what I wanted, packaged well in the box, and all the ammo was in good condition. I will definitely be buying from ammo.com again!

I believe this is the ultimate .357 sig ammo. Accurate and effective.

Chris said:
The round has incredible velocity and stopping power, and it is very snappy in anything but a Glock 31 gen 4. Accuracy is very good. Great round if price is not a concern.

Couldn't find any ammo locally, but like everything in Washington and crude oil, there seems to be a shortage in brains and pipelines. I found AMMO. NET to be fast and a reliable source.

Murcus said:
With the shortages in Ammo I was very happy to receive what I was able to get. The ammo cycled and shot great. It was to bad there wasn't more of it.

Eric said:
Bought this for a javelina hunt, used in my Ruger PC Carbine, worked flawlessly, near perfect expansion and it was stopped by the hide on the opposite side of the animal. No 9mm over penetration concerns based on my one round fired out of a carbine.

John S said:
Speer Gold Dot are my favorite defense ammo (that's not ridiculously overpriced). I had not tried the +P type before now. The heavier slug and additional powder really do make a difference. I've already ordered some more of this stuff, in 9mm and .45 acp for my S&W Shield.
