Sorry to hear that wholesalers limit themselves and their customers so much...
Order and import 10,000+ 310mm myself every couple years from Taiwan.
CN Spoke...SL as well.
DT 14 and 15s are available in the same - so are Sapim, Wheelsmith's...etc.

Back when I built 500+ wheels each of two years - 1990 / 1991 - DT's and Wheelsmiths in 310mm is what I used with a Phil Wool spoke machine. For double butted it was 300mm and 270mm.
