^^ And you still can. When it's available, Bullseye turns out to be a really versatile powder.
You actually can do this with at least two of the other powders that the OP listed as well, namely Titegroup and W231. I've found extensive handgun cartridge load data for both of these powders, also.
This is why I have two similar powders in my stock for reloading. I figure, if one's scarce, the other is likely to be less scarce, and that's proved to be true. I use Bullseye as my primary for .38/357. When Bullseye got really scarce for a while there, I switched those loads to the Titegroup versions. When Bullseye came back, I went back to the Bullseye loads. Likewise, Titegroup is my primary for .45 ACP, .45 Colt, and .44 Special. Should Titegroup ever become scarce and Bullseye more available, I've got some good Bullseye loads as backups. It pays to, "Be Prepared".
Hmm...perhaps I oughta do the same thing for W231...just in case.
