SteffenHornady 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.

smithrjdBarnes 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.
