Is this training Ammo lower powered. They say it's not for LE use.

It's probably the G2  ammo that doesn't actually expand like it's supposed to.

G2 is that code for Ammo that's under specs?

G2 is the latest generation of the Gold Dot.  Early batches didn't reliably expand, and are being sold off as training ammo.

G2 = Gold Dot 2.    It's an elastimer filled HP that didn't actually work right.  Thus training only.

Tagged, because I have a couple boxes of that stuff and never did now if it was "blems" or a QC problem or what.  I've shot several hundred rounds without a problem, but still regarded it as really nice practice ammunition.

I bought Speer Gold dot .40 years ago because some LE agency had misfires so Speer recalled the whole lot of ammo. They repackaged in in 250 round boxes and marked it for training use only. Seems to be the way Speer/CCI/ATK cuts their losses with "bad" ammo.

I went through many of those recalled/reclassified 250rd boxes of 124+p 9mm back in the day and never had any issues. I bought all I could I could at the time.  That was my carry load, so it was a nice cheap range round.  I probably still have some stashed someplace. I found a unopened wooden crate of sealed ammo cans of Aussie 7.62.51 one day while looking something.

http://greent.com/40Page/general/speer-recall.htm

Can't comment on the new loads. Any product codes on the new boxes?

I made the mistake of not looking close enough at the picture on Recoil Gunworks website and bought the 1000 round case of PD trade-in ammo.  Much to my surprise when I opened it up, I noticed the distinctive bullet profile and the gel-filled HP.  I called them right away and expressed my displeasure, as I bought this to use as a cheap alternative to function checking pistols since I carry the 147 standard Gold Dot in my Glocks.  When they lowered the price to 335.00 per case I bit thinking I had found some less expensive practice fodder.  They were at first trying to tell me tough luck but after a little talking they offered up a call tag to return the ammo.

Don't buy this thinking it is the standard bullet Gold Dot!

I would have no issue using the Federal 9MS as a solid round coming off the bench to shore up my Gold Dots or HST. I would not use these  G2 rounds for serious business, they are specifically marked practice only for a reason.

Massammo has them for $185 delivered for 700 rounds.  That's $13.20 a box, including a couple $10 ammo cans.  Speer Lawman is about the same price.

From the very poor picture they have, that looks like the G2 load that is trying to be dumped on the market.

I have 1400 rounds showing up, if this is the same stuff massammo was selling

Regardless, at cheaper than 147 FMJ rounds, it has to do a decent job at expanding vs FMJ rounds.

Ill be putting some back. Good ammo to have laying around at that price.

I wonder what would happen if one cleared the gel out of the hollowpoint

Not the same price, but you get nickel plated brass cases, flash suppressant powder, and a bullet that will expand from nothing to full, depending on the barrier.  It's $13.20 a box delivered, with two $10 cans.  Sell the cans and you have paid the same price as the Speer 147 TMJ delivered from SGAmmo.

And I just found that today.

Thatll soon be my go to fodder ammo.

But I still feel great about this deal on the 147 grain Speer HPs.

I mean thats one hell of a bargain, even if they dont perform as well as the original gold dots.

Speaking of good training ammo...I bought a ton of the Blazer 115 gr HP back in the day when I found out they were using GoldDot projectiles, but loading them in the aluminum case.  Same FPS as normal GD 115, but they sold for $12 for 50 rds.

I called Speer and asked and, "Yes, that is the same bullet, but we don't  advertise that fact..."

The Blazer 115 HP was dropped from the line up a year or so later...

Here is massammos response on questions asked about this ammo

I wont have my order until monday to verify.

Ok. So rather than believe the speculation I called MassAmmo..

I spoke with a nice young lady who advised me of the following.

These rounds were purchased from a distributor who supplies .gov agencies.

These are over run rounds

They are NOT REMAN

They perform as designed ballistically

She could not liken them to any certain round (GD, GD2) ect due to the fact they were purchased form the distributor in bagged quantities and not boxes bearing a certain indicator as to what round it is.

I have two boxes of G2's. I have a feeling they will perform out of a longer barrel such as my pistol build that I'm working on currently. Shooting the Bull said he got them to expand with a 6 inch barrel.

I don't know, I'm not going to call the lady that LawnGuy spoke to a liar, but to me, the origin of the ammo is still unclear, and I wouldn't trust it for SD until that lot is actually tested.  At that price, it's great shooting for fun ammo, but loose packed, no lot number to track it with?  I'm just not convinced.

Its going to be my MP5K ammo for the most part and training rounds for defensive loads.

That being said, given the choice between having ball and this stuff stuck in a corner. Ill take this stuff every single time, which is why I ordered 4 cases

Lets take the fact that the rounds may not expand. Even then you are still getting a killer deal for the nickel plated casings and good consistent loadings, with good powder. Its good ammo for the price barely above fodder any way you look at it to me.

My go to carry ammo is HST across pistol calibers anyhow.

Don't get me wrong, it's an excellent price for the ammo, and it's certainly made to a higher QC than bulk ball ammo.  It also works fine in longer barrels, an MP5K certainly has that.  Let's just say that it isn't going to fit everyone's needs equally.  I would buy it too, if it filled a need.  My only single concern is folks that might use it as SD ammo in short barreled pistols, where it's shown to not work as it should.  Aside from that specific usage, it's an outrageously good deal.

Now this post got me thinking. American Reloading is selling primed aluminum cases that were never fired; the bullets and powder were pulled. I'm wondering if 5.7 grains of True Blue on a 124 GDHP in an aluminum case would make for some light SD rounds.

Did you count them all to make sure?  I seen a guy complain online about being shorted 10 rounds in a similar purchase.  SMH

You could shoot them into jugs of water for a ghetto expansion test.

No there is no way Im gunna count them.

Looks close enough. 3 of the 4 bags were split open so I could see how it can happen. Id imagine they weigh them in the sacks for a count as these were all loose rounds

Ive thought of doing that. Hell I may I got nothing to lose. I wish I had access to the real stuff to pull a few out randomly to see what they do.

I wonder how hard it is to cook up some balistics gel.


Still waiting on mine to arrive, is the head stamp 2014?


2015 from the ones I looked at.

Thanks. My old stock of this was all 2014. Looking forward to seeing how this performs when it arrives. UPS says 58 pounds, my delivery guy hates me

I went through many of those recalled/reclassified 250rd boxes of 124+p 9mm back in the day and never had any issues. I bought all I could I could at the time.  That was my carry load, so it was a nice cheap range round.  I probably still have some stashed someplace. I found a unopened wooden crate of sealed ammo cans of Aussie 7.62.51 one day while looking something.

Can't comment on the new loads. Any product codes on the new boxes?

I bought Speer Gold dot .40 years ago because some LE agency had misfires so Speer recalled the whole lot of ammo. They repackaged in in 250 round boxes and marked it for training use only. Seems to be the way Speer/CCI/ATK cuts their losses with "bad" ammo.

Mine finally arrived after UPS decided to reschedule the delivery, 2015 head stamp also and the newer style skives. I'm happy
