Speer Jacketed SP 45 Cal?

[tentcamper]

Has Speer discontinued the 300 grain 45 caliber jacketed soft point bullets?

I've loaded quite a few of these, really like them and have not seen these available in quite a while. Speers's website only lists 250 grainers and these are marked currently unavailable. No 300 grainers on their site at all anymore.

Sad, these were great bullets. Worked very well for me in my Ruger loads.

I just picked up a bunch of .452 Hornady 300 grain XTPs for a good price but the Speers I like were just fine.

I like them too and when I was passing through Post-Falls ID last November I found a single box in a sporting goods store there and bought them. I asked if they had any more and they did not, didn't say anything like they couldn't get them or they aren't making them anymore or anything like that.

It has been a while (a few years) since I have seen any before that.

They are currently available at midway. I just got the email this morning. They also have 250gr jacketed soft hollow point however they call those.
