Are 7150s now discontinued?

Stock issues or have Fender pulled the plug?

Well, they're still listed as available and in stock on Fender's web site:

While something of interest to me, I have never tried these strings, so haven't attempted to purchase any recently.

What makes you think they might be discontinued?

The current 7150 are stiff, rough string surface and dry sounding to me compare to pre-mexi 2010 gold silk 7150.

Dunlop SBN 40-100 has similar tonal and string texture to old 7150xl 40-95 with more open tone.
