Need Help finding Fed.308

Federal 308 HE 165grn #P308TT4A few years back the wife and me started to use this cartridges for deer. They perform like a champ but we've been working off of our inventory from two years back. I just CAN NOT find them any where so if any one comes across them I would be grateful for any info one could share. Or have any for sale
Thanks,
Matt

Contact Federal? These companies are forever "improving" products to "compete". They may be re-named. Look for "new and improved".

Seriously, call or email Federal's "contact us".

That was easy. I really did search the web for it

I have never seen that webpage before.
Thanks

Discontinued. Would these work? http://www.federalpremium.com/produc...le.aspx?id=303

Thanks for the suggestion, they make the identical round in standard velocities PP308tt2.
I'm still hoping to find some of the 308tt4

Response from Federal Premium: We no longer load any high energy loads. (Emphasis mine)

Now, that's interesting. What would be more interesting is why and what's going on? Have they determined that high energy propellants are no longer needed due to improved projectiles? Are they capitulating to some angst regarding "high-powered weapons"? WTF?
