Default RE: Is the 7mm. Rem. Mag dieing?

I don't think it is dying or that it ever will. The shooting populus is a fickle lot when it comes to cartridge selection. You either have those wanting the latest and greatest, or wanting what Dad or Grandpa said was the best. I myself go through different cartridges at times but I always have my old standbys in the safe to fall back on. I have never been a fan of the 7mm Rem Mag, but it does have its merits and I am sure it has developed enough of a following that the circle will come back around. The older shooters will start shooting them again and the new generation will want to try them out. I would venture to say that the 243 Win, 25-06 Rem, 270 Win, 7mm-08 Rem, 7mm Rem Mag, 308 Win, 30-30 Win, 30-06 Sprnfld will always have a following along with some that I have forgotten to add.
