MidwayUSA shows that it is discontinued.
MidwayUSA shows the same in the Sierra still available.
The Sierra bullet has mostly good reviews but they mostly talk about accuracy.

Yeah, it's gone, as is the 270 gr interlock. Now I think it's the 270 gr interbond. My 375 JDJ pistol loved those 270gr interlocks. Not enough demand I guess?

I load the 300gr partition for my H&H.

Both the 300gr. bts and the 300gr, rn have been discontinued. Only the 250gr. GMX 270gr PP. sp interlock, 300gr. DGX and 300gr.DGS bullets are in their bullet line now. I had worked up a load for the 375 Ruger in the 300gr. rn. But today tried some 300gr. Partitions and is happy and will be using it for elk hunting this year.

I have got a good supply ...infact I have got 2800 of them so it should last me a while, but was thinking of topping up my supply just a bit
im waiting for the 300 gn nosler partitions to show up at the pro shop, so will get a few hundred proj as I feel the 300 gn partition will be the closest thing to an all round proj out of the 375 ruger @2700 fps

I was bummed out that they discontinued the standard 300gr. round nose. I worked up and good load with RE-17 powder that shot a 3/8" 3 shot group in my 375 Ruger. But this weekend shot with the 300gr. Nosler Partition and I am getting a 1/2" 3 shot group with RE-17 powder. The Hornady 300gr. round nose chronographed out at 2488 fps, out of my 20" barrel Guide Gun. Haven't chronographed the Nosler Partition yet. Maybe next weekend.

Sure hated to see those 270 RN and 300 RN disappear. They made them for over 50 years, but I guess the demand for premiums, bonded and etc caught up with them. Killed a lot of game with them and never a problem
