My issue with the slow speed of the 64/62gr GDs is that I try to maintain consistency across rifles. I use those rounds for home defense, but home defense means something different for me than for somebody else. Home defense means shooting a coyote at 180+ yards off my back porch. I also like going coyote hunting which is 200+ all day long.

The speed sucks for that. I could always use two different cartridges, but why can't anyone make a faster 5.56 rated ~62gr bonded loaded round?

Once these gold dots run out, I'm just going to load my own.
