The 50 cal is now called the PA conical, you will just have to check around and see if anyone has them in stock.  I don't know if the Buffalo Ball-ets is still being made in .54, but here are some of the places I found that you can check;

look at the REAL molds. i have the 350 but need to get the 250 as it is the short 1.5 length to diameter ratio that may stabilize in slow twist barrels. may have to pour your own but you will never be out of 250s again.

I don't think they are making them anymore but there's a chance you can find some still in inventory somewhere.  The 50 cal Hornady PA conical is the only size that I know of that is still in production.

Thanks guys . I was able to find the PA's for my 50 cal. But I couldn't find any for the 45?? Went ahead and ordered the maxi's for the 45 cal from TOTW. But had to grease them up by hand.. Took awhile til i figured out how to get the grease in the groves nice and pretty . Like when they came from the factory... lol   dntn
