Overview
Speer Gold Dot 62-grain bonded soft point is a .223 Remington defensive rifle load built around Speer's Uni-Cor bonding process, where the copper jacket is bonded to the lead core. This reduces jacket-core separation compared with conventional soft point bullets and supports consistent expansion and weight retention.
Speer's current catalog lists the 62gr Gold Dot rifle load as part 24461 with a Gold Dot soft-point bullet, 0.310 G1 ballistic coefficient, 3,000 fps muzzle velocity, and 1,239 ft-lbs of muzzle energy from a 24-inch test barrel. That puts it in the bonded defensive/duty lane rather than the bulk training lane.
Availability and packaging can vary because Gold Dot rifle loads often move through law-enforcement or limited commercial channels. Verify the exact Speer part number before buying, especially if comparing 55gr, 62gr, and 75gr Gold Dot rifle variants.
