It's been in stock and on sale for what seems like months. They seem to run out of the 75g from time to time.
I've been picking up a few boxes here and there, while wondering why its so cheap and seems to be an endless supply of the 55 and 64g. I'd think at 9.99 a box, they'd all be long gone by now. |

The Gold Dots have some of the least amount of exposed lead at the meplat. I haven't had any malfunctions with the Gold Dot ammunition, but I also haven't fired more than ~120 rounds of it in between cleanings. |

I will buy again in the future if they run the same sale.  I am on the fence about ordering another 300 rounds for this very reason. Too good to pass up. Seems to be a regular price, now. And the 75gr has gone down to 12.99 per box. Salad days.... |
