I ordered some of this ammo from Stars and Stripes. It's a bit pricey, but I do love my Gold Dots in all the other cal.s I use. nbender has tested this ammo in the past and liked it, so I'm going to give it a try. Here's a link and as soon as I get a chance to test it out I'll update.

Here is another GDHP source compliments of Nbender. I trust his recommendation on it. Maybe you've seen this data already.

It is a little slower and a bit cheaper. I may get and try some of the S&S stuff in my Mak or CZ82.
