Nyclad 38 ammo

Fed Nyclad 125gr. is my favorite load for aluminum frame snubbys:

I bought several new production boxes last year. They are 50 rd. count.
Somebody mentioned a price for 20 rd. boxes. I've been using this ammo since it first came out and I've never seen it marketed in 20rd increments, only 50 rd.
Maybe I missed something?
 
While only shooting low pressure wadcutters at the range, I'm placing my bets on CorBon DPX rounds loaded with 110 grain Barnes Bullets from all my PD snubbies.

Yes, they're +P, but I don't think a few rounds now and then will cause any damage to either my M36's or late year Colt, lightweight D frames.

In fact, I recently found several boxes of 40+ year old "standard pressure" .38 Special ammo in my dad's closet.

I shot a few rounds of it at the range, and it was at least as hot as my current "+P" ammo if not hotter.

I totally understand not wanting to damage a vintage pistol, but for life-or-death defense, I'm going with modern +P ammo: either Barnes Bullets or short-barrel Gold Dots.

YMMV
