Have you tried going to BPI/Powerbelt directly?

You're better off making your own. Powerbelts do not have a good track record compared to the tried and true designs.

I concur
Powerbelts shatter and bloodtrail are not guaranteed
Full bore lead bullets will give you TWO holes

I will check around OKC and stores around there. I saw some on the rack a week or so back.
And as far as bad track record, never heard that. I have been using them in my Encore 209x50 pistol for years and never had anything walk off after the hit.
I started using them after I had the rifle barrel cut to 15" and they were the easiest to load after cutting off the muzzle easy load feature.
I've taken several whitetail deer, some pigs, one antelope with the 245 grain. I set my neighbors CVA up with the Aerolite Power Belts and it shoots very good.

I've never had any problems from Powerbelts in a Traditions Pursuit Pro. Haven't tried them in sidelocks.
