Default Standard Pressure CCI-Speer 38 Special 125gr Gold Dot

I have heard rumors that Speer makes a standard pressure 38 Gold Dot.
This is the first time I have ever seen it and I know many on this
forum only use standard loads in the non+P guns and might have been looking for it lately.
Here it is-50 rds for $25:

I bought a bunch of this a few years back. Nice enough stuff and very cheap at the time. I wish that I would have bought more. I would be glad to post pics of the ammo if anybody wants to see them. Here's some chrono data from when a buddy of mine tested them:

"Conditions: sunny and 67 degrees.

S&W 642-1 125 gr Speer Gold Dot
756 fps, 689 fps, 777 fps, 737 fps, 740 fps

S&W 442-1 125 gr Gold Dot
773 fps, 817 fps, 813 fps, 813 fps, 794 fps

Ruger GP100 .357 4" barrel shooting same 125 gr Gold Dot
859 fps, 874 fps, 832 fps, 894 fps, 856 fps, 877 fps"
