Not sure what was out their, I have some old Norma 156s I believe, small lead tip but look like they will go thru trees.....and then some, cupro (sp?) jacket I believe.

Barnes still does solids I believe, not sure cali/wts.

Hornady also makes a 160gr RN

edit 20/9:
i didnt saw that you asked for solids, the easiest would be to order solid mono bullets from a custom bullet maker.

Barnes used to make a 165g round nose solid not sure if they still do. Still have about half a box left. It was accurate in my Sako, but was the only combo that I ever got pressure signs with.

Wouldn't a 140 gr Nosler Partition work ?
