Bullets
Greg Siegmund at Clinch River makes a 216g bullet. Randy Robinette makes a 187g flat base. Brady Knight makes a 187g and a 200g bullet as well. I think you can contact most of those guys here on this board as well.
Good shooting

Rob is correct. As of 2 weeks ago Brady had around 1700 200 gr. BT's in stock.

Randy Robinett only makes flat base bullets. But if they didn't work at 1,000 yards, Joel Pendergraft would have to give back about 50 of his IBS Marksmanship Points; Dave Tooley would have to give back his NBRSA single-group record & a bunch of IBS points, (me too, but a smaller number 'cause I have fewer,) and Jeff Rogers his Australian records. Etc. They work fine in up to a 13-twist barrel, iffy in a 14-twist. They'll shoot in a 10 twist as long as you don't push them over 3,150 or so, but you loose the theoretical advantage a slower twist gives.
Clinch River's are boattails, made on a secant ogive pattern; I have one 10-twist barrel that likes them better than the BIBs.
Brady Knight's bullets are on the same profile as the BIBs, a 10-caliber tangent ogive, but the 200s are boattails. For whatever reason, the three 12- & 13-twist barrels I've used prefer the BIBs to the Knight boattails (or anything else), but I've got two fresh .30 barrels this year, and for sure I'll give Brady's bullets a spin.

240's in 10 twist
absolutely. I can point to a number of 3 and 4 inch groups and 100 scores shot with 240's in 10 twist barrels. I know that Sierra recommends a 9 twist but they work well out of a 10 twist.
