This is a simple case of economics 101.
Right now the ammo manufacturers can sell 100 (or more) rounds of 9mm for every 38 special (of ANY kind) that people will buy.
So they are devoting their production resources to loading more 9mm (and other more popular calibers). Simply because that is what is best for THEIR bottom line.
When the market reaches a point of being saturated with a surplus inventory of the more popular calibers, THEN they will do runs of the less popular calibers.
BUT NOT UNTIL THEN.
At least that is how I see it - JMO and YMMV.
For now, the only solution seems to be handloading your own - or paying whatever they want to charge for the less common ammo calibers.
