That's the exact problem. They were unsafe and very unreliable feeding. Imo, the 17 does not even belong in this discussion. It's 300BLK and 308 for rifles (308 just because of the sheer number of them) and 40 Cal and 44 mag for pistols with pistols taking a narrow lead.

Been posting from phone all morning and will till tonight so please overlook minor mistakes.

Idk man.

I'd like to see some graphs of ammo sales over the lifespan of these various calibers.

I'd bet you'd see some mind blowing numbers with the .17

The .300 not so much

How can you say this, I know more people that own 17's than have even heard of a 300whatchacallit. It's just that in your circle the 300BLK is currently the flavor of the day in mine it's calibers like 17hmr or 35 whelen or a sumtin short magnum.
