I was having a conversation with a friend of mine this AM concerning the proliferation of new cartridges and we agreed that it is much like the heyday of the wildcats back in the 1920's-30's. Few of which survive today.

Enlightenment is a way of saying that all things are seen in their intrinsic empty nature, their Suchness, their ungraspable wonder. Names or words are merely incidental, but that state which sees no division, no duality, is enlightenment.

~ Prajnaparamita



"Where would there be leather enough to cover the entire world? With just the leather of my sandals, it is as if the whole world were covered. Likewise, I am unable to restrain external phenomena, but I shall restrain my own mind. What need is there to restrain anything else?"

~ Shantideva




Each of us has a story. That is called “the story of our life”. And to have a life that we want. You should remember the following teachings of Buddha to help purify your mind:
The reason people suffer is because they keep pursuing the wrong things.
If you do not want to bring trouble to yourself, then others will not be able to cause trouble for you. Because your own mind cannot let go.
You should always thank those who bring adversity to you.
You must always open your heart to forgive all living beings, no matter how bad they are, even if they have hurt you, you must let go, to have true joy.
When you are happy, you must think that this joy is not eternal. When you are suffering, you must think that this pain is not eternal.
Today's attachment will be tomorrow's regret.
You can have love but do not cling, because separation is inevitable.

Yes and no, methinks. The new cartridges coming out now seem to be driven by a couple of things. One is Hornady's creation and support of these new calibers. Another is the many chamberings offered in/on the AR platform. I suspect that those uppers and the sales thereof will at least assure that they will hang around for awhile. Hard to say what will be around 80 years from now, but I suspect that the modern stuff has a better chance of survival based on sheer proliferation.

I don’t think I can do that with the AR platform….

If it doesn't scare you a little bit when you floor it, then it isn't fast enough.

It's a damned shame that in the struggle for character building, self-interest always seems to derail it. And sadder still is a big part of that, critical thinking gets pushed into the ditch in favor of seeking approval from the crowd.

I'm actually looking at this-here 1926 Chrysler Imperial.
