YES !!!

Bubba Bullet Metamorphosis Technologies, Ltd. (very Ltd.)
has announced it is discontinuing 400-gr/.458-cal X-TSX production,
now that the 400-gr/.458-cal Shock Hammer bullet is available from Hammer Bullets.

Barnes 500-gr/.458-cal TSX bullets will not be cut off at the base anymore, by BBMT, Ltd. (more limited now)
Instead, those too-long-for-caliber bullets will only be shortened to 480-grainers by rhinoplasty.
That makes an extremely tough, semi-soft nose FN bullet for magazine filling of .458 WM and .458 WM+ rifles.

BBMT, Ltd. will now shift operations to shortening of the 500-gr/.458-cal Trophy Bonded Sledgehammer Solid
and remaining stocks of the brass Barnes Banded Solids to produce 400-gr and 450-gr FN solids,
to match preferred "soft" bullet weights.

We can also use the semi-solid 400-gr/.458-cal Barnes Buster FN as a "tweener" bullet.
It is in between soft and solid and will bulge its nose into a nicely stable shape with heavy impacts.
