Maybe you can get together with this guy; he says that's all he can find.

Try the Internet. In the last month, I've ordered 500 rounds from Midway. All 158 grain.

A quick google search will find all the 158gn Round Nose Lead you want...good for the rane and accumulating brass, but not the best choice for SD.
By the way, I'm the guy from the linked post.
Here is a link to Aim surplus, with two kinds of 158gn, including JHP:

I've always had trouble finding carry ammo locally. I bought my last .38 Special +P 158 gr LSWCHP Remingtons from Cheaper Than Dirt.
