[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 1810521, member: 14204"] You're quoting its military history as it was designed, not its initial introduction or availability for civilian use. They might be vastly superior to the rounds/rifles they replaced but sometimes the military changes things for a different purpose. For instance, the .30-06 (7.62x63mm) stayed in service for over 5 decades in their machine guns and was replaced by 7.62x51mm (1954). Fads, trends, or craze are a matter of perspective and it is cyclical just like global warming (or whatever the social media calls it nowadays) that has been continuously evolving for thousands/millions of years, diets, fashion, etc ... heck, even movie remakes. :D To the OP, my sincere apologies for being part of complicating your simple question unnecessarily. Moving right along ... I hope. :cool: Cheers! [/QUOTE]
