Source for these style 158 gr 38 spl RN bullets?

[8shot]

I know that it will be a long time before any bullets are available but would like to know who might have this .358 style bullet in the future. The bullet in the picture compares with what Remington uses in there 158 RN "target" loads.

This bullet is made by Magtech (Brazil) and has the long body length almost pointed (not ball shape) which I feel is a plus. They shoot great in my competition revolver..BUT Magtech informed me that they are no longer selling the bullets separately and switching to loaded ammo only!

Don't want cast or jacketed bullets. This bullet design has a "cup core" base design (Remington also) which appears to handle higher velocity better than deep hollow base bullets and is more stable than flat or bevel base bullets (in my gun).

Hornady and Speer both sell swaged 158 RN but I don't think they have a cupped base.

Someone on the forum about 3 weeks ago was looking for that boolit and said it would shoot 2'' groups at 50 yards with his pistol da. I am looking also.

National made a 200 grain that would do that but they went out of business. It was copper washed with one lube groove. I still have a few. I use a starter load in 357. They have a small bevel on the base. They may work in 38 brass.

Thanks but a bit too heavy for my application.
