I saw the IMR 4227 but not Hodgdon

I played with 4227 a bit in the past in the .45 Colt but didn't care for it because I got better performance in heavier loads using H110 and 2400 and for mild loads it wasn't as economical as Unique. I did like HS7 a lot in the .45 Colt. I wonder why they dropped it. I've tried to settle on just a few loads for .38/.357, .44 Magnum and .45 ACP over the last several years and found Unique, 2400, HS6, H110 and Lil'Gun pretty much covered everything but 2400 was my most used powder. It stinks not being able to get my hands on it today.
