Here's s link to an update on the Barnes page. It appears that banded solids are available in loaded ammunition.
http://www.barnesbullets.com/wp-content/...lids-2012-2.pdf

An interesting excerpt from the update:
**Please note the Banded Solids components and VOR-TX Safari ammunition products loaded with Banded
Solids not included in the aforementioned calibers (e.g. 416, 470 and 500) and TSX bullets are
not subject to the current armor piercing classification and continue to be available for purchase**

These are the aforementioned calibers.

**As of today’s date, ATF has not ruled on any of the petitions requesting the removal of the Banded Solid projectiles from the statutory definition of armor piercing ammunition. Accordingly, the following eleven Banded Solid projectiles (currently listed in the 2012 Barnes Catalog) are subject to exemption requests that are pending with ATF. Please note that Barnes is not pursuing an exemption for the .223 caliber Banded Solid projectile at this time. The .223 caliber Banded Solids are not listed in the 2012 Barnes catalog or on the Barnes website**

25 Cal
243 Cal
264 Cal
270 Cal
284 Cal
308 Cal
338 Cal
375 Cal
410 Cal
458 Cal (45-70)
458 SOCOM

These calibers are still in the lurch. The text doesn't appear to differentiate between RN or pointed.

A more recent update indicates that the banded solids are available in a few more calibers as loaded ammo but not components:

**Barnes Banded Solids are now available loaded in new VOR-TX Safari Ammunition. 375 H&H and 458 Winchester Magnum TSX and Banded Solid RN available in June, 2011. Other Safari calibers to become available through September. **
