I've never used HDC, but I understand its discontinued and that Vista is the replacement. I've used Vista 100 and 200 in the past few months and have been pleased with the results; based on my experiences it compares well to Optima. It is indeed hard to find, however. I can find it here in Thunder Bay at a local pro shop, but also at the A&P, of all places.
