Where are you getting your Gold Dots??
« on: October 12, 2005, 06:56:39 PM »
I am having a difficult time procuring 9mm Gold Dots and am looking for some leads.

The companies I usually deal with seem to have lots and lots of +P ammo, but that's not what the R9 is supposed to eat, right? So, where're ya gettin' it, huh?

(BTW, is the GD "law Enforcement" ammo all +P? Do all +P ammo boxes claim that's what they are or can one buy a box of 9mm GD which is +P in stealth mode??)

Geez, I wish this pup was +P compatible.

Ouch! I think I paid $240 or so for 1000 115grain GDHP in
9mm from Ammoman.com a year ago. These other guys charge $12 per 20! Ammoman.com doesn't even list it anymore. I'm lucky I have 750 rds or so left, but now that I have a gun I can shoot a lot (thanks to TW for the heads up!), a Ruger SP101 in 9mm, I can see this is no quantity at all. I need more from Ammoman, dull garnet;^) I'm not afraid to throw a tantrum, either;^)

Really, if you find a deal on ammo, especially if it's a caliber you are committed to, go ahead and buy all you can afford (I'm down to 9mm and .45ACP. It was out of control, so I consolidated. Two is enough for me.  Of course that doesn't account for shot shells, although I have limited that to two gauges as well (12 and 20).

I'm sure we all will be supportive of each other and send major alerts when we find what we want at a price we can afford.

How about a limited production run just for us Rohrbaugh owners, and
anyone else who loves it too. Hmm. I wonder how much is the minimum we have to buy and what are the terms;^)

Prolly have to order 100 million rounds or so. Hmmm. Let's see...100 million divided by 20 times 4, carry the 12...um...anyone want to buy a 9mm revolver;^) LOL!

It seems were I was today all of the gold dot boxes said "20 High Performance Cartridges" and "the Choice for Law Enforcement".  Even the box of 32 caliber 60 gr gold dots I got for my Seecamp said that along with the 9mm 115 gr GDHP.  It seems that all of the Gold Dot +Ps says so on the Cartridge.  You can't beat Tom's price of $15 for 50 -- the 124 GDHP come in regular and +P - but once again says +P if it is so I would say.

Another Gold Dot source - but not as good a price as Tom - I think Tom told me he buys in bulk so he can give you a good deal -

My local Gander Mountain sells both 115 and 124 Gold Dots.  

Winchester white box has served me well for range ammo.

Tom - maybe the 50 round boxes are different than the 20 - just guessing since I haven't seen a 50 round box - hope all is well in the big T - sent you a PM this evening - Dave
