I agree Daryl.

Interesting that the emphasis of the manufacturers has been heavies for a long time.

The 57mm "German" case seems more and more to me to be an amazingly efficient one with modern powders...especially with modern powders.

Historically, this developement in rifle cartridges parallels that of pistol rounds of the 1890-1920 era. Previous cartridges like the .45 S&W and Colt has voluminous cases required by BP, and then the virtually miniature .45 ACP came along, allowed by the advent of smokeless to produce very similar ballistics.

For the tinkerer, or gun company looking for new rounds to sell to those stuck at home due to the crunch of dollars, a fleet of mediums based on an improved 57mm case would be neat to see.

A .338, .358, 9.3 and .375 {maybe even a .40!} on such an improved case would fill out the stable.

I know...as if there is any need...
