Gold Dots are really great. I think of the bonded bullets from the major ammo companies (Rem, Winchester, and Speer --- Federal doesn't offer bonded HST), they have the deepest penetration. Expansion of Gold Dots is less than Winchester PDX/Ranger bonded, but they do penetrate quite a bit deeper.
Gold Dots are most definitely an awesome round. No question.
My late father in law, whose XD40 I now own and use as my CCW, was ex-LEO, ex-military, and just loved shooting and hunting. Only thing he carried in his XD40 and Colt 1911 were Gold Dots.
