Built on Speer’s trusted Gold Dot bonded-core technology, this 62-grain soft point projectile is engineered for deep penetration, controlled expansion, and consistent terminal performance on impact.
Whether you’re loading for duty-style applications, defensive use, varmint control, or general-purpose field work, the Speer Gold Dot 62gr SP offers the balance of weight, construction, and accuracy serious shooters look for in a modern .224-caliber bullet.
Gold Dot Bonded-Core Construction – Built for Deep, Reliable Penetration
Speer’s Gold Dot line is known for its bonded-core construction, where the jacket is chemically bonded to the lead core. This design dramatically reduces jacket-core separation, promoting near-maximum weight retention even after striking barriers or dense tissue.
Benefits of Gold Dot bonded construction in a 62gr .224 bullet include:
Exceptional weight retention for consistent penetration
Controlled expansion that helps create effective wound channels
Reduced jacket separation, even at higher velocities
Reliable performance over a broad range of impact conditions
If you want a bullet that holds together and keeps driving, the Gold Dot bonded design is a top-tier choice.
62-Grain Soft Point – A Versatile Weight for .223/5.56-Class Loads
At 62 grains, this Gold Dot soft point hits a sweet spot for .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO–class rifles and carbines. This bullet weight is widely popular for both field and defensive loads due to its balance of:
Flat trajectory at common engagement distances
Good retained energy downrange
Stable performance in common twist rates (such as 1:9, 1:8, and 1:7, depending on rifle)
The soft point (SP) design adds a traditional, proven nose profile that promotes reliable expansion while still feeding well in most magazine-fed rifles when properly loaded to spec.
.224-Caliber Bullet – Ideal for .223 Remington and Similar Cartridges
These .224-caliber Gold Dot 62gr soft point bullets are designed for handloaders working with:
As component bullets (not loaded ammunition), they allow serious reloaders to craft custom loads tailored to:
Their specific rifle or carbine
Desired velocity ranges
Intended use (defensive, hunting, patrol, or general-purpose)

Consistent Accuracy for Serious Shooters
Speer’s reputation for uniform bullet construction means each Gold Dot soft point is manufactured with tight tolerances in:
Weight consistency
Jacket thickness
Core alignment
Overall bullet geometry
This uniformity supports:
Tight group sizes at practical ranges
Repeatable point of impact shot to shot
Confidence when it matters—whether at the range, in competition, or in the field
Reloaders focused on performance will appreciate how well these bullets can pair with tuned loads and quality barrels.

Personal defense (where appropriate and legal)
Patrol or duty-style rifles (when authorized and validated)
Predator and varmint control where controlled expansion and penetration are desired
