Thought I'd share this with my board brothers (and sisters) in case you haven't heard about it yet.
Lewiston, ID – February 5, 2004 – Speer is introducing another innovative product that is sure to be a success in the Law Enforcement and Personal Defense markets—a 38 Special +P Gold Dot load that performs flawlessly in short barrel, or “snub-nose,†revolvers.
This exciting offering carries a newly designed 135-grain Gold Dot Hollow Point bullet built specifically for 38 Special velocities. It features a broad, deep cavity and has true bonded core construction.
According to Ernest Durham, Development Engineer on this breakthrough project, “This round is perfect for both law enforcement professionals and personal defense use. Its consistent expansion and patented Gold Dot bullet technology offer users extreme confidence in its performance. And with an increasing number of citizens gaining concealed carry licenses, we feel it’s just the right product to chamber in the most demanding of situations.â€
From the law enforcement side, this round was specifically designed to perform in the most prevalent back-up revolver: the Smith & Wesson J-Frame with a 1-7/8†barrel. Extensive lab testing of this application demonstrated excellent terminal performance using the exacting standards of FBI Ammunition Test Protocol. Velocity exceeds 860 feet per second in 1-7/8†production revolvers (4†test barrel velocity is 975 ft/sec).
Such peak performance in small frame revolvers also makes it an ideal concealed carry cartridge for citizens. Nickel-plated brass cases and renowned, non-corrosive CCI® primers make this product a sure bet, no matter what the situation.
Getting reliable expansion from a short-barrel 38 revolver used to be a chore—not anymore—this Gold Dot product is specially tuned for 38 Special velocities and reliable expansion.
This 38 Special Gold Dot product is now available.

Choose your targets wisely and have at least three major calibers on your person for just the right "oomph." The accountant biker in leather will confuse most rounds and cause ricochets.
