Performance is certainly worth looking at. Impressive ballistics. If Hornady or another major ammo mfg loads it I wouldn't hesitate to chamber rifles for it.

Hopefully we will see it spread. And it will only be a general commercial success if mainstream US ammo makers cater for it, or at the usual ammo makers for unusual big bores such as Norma, Hornady etc.

And if some gunmakers also cater for it. Bringing the cartridge into the affordability of common gunowners. Maybe a Ruger no.1 could be chambered for it?

Being a rimmed cartridge, makes it less likely in cheaper firearms, as it is usually only the break open and similar actions which use the rimmed cartridges. Single shots and doubles.

This would be an awesome cartridge to use around Africa.. IMHO.. very good ballistics and as much knockdown energy you should ever need.. 400 gr bullet at 2350-2400FPS.. that equates to over 5000ft.lbs of energy at the muzzle..

As you state, if other larger ammo manufacturers were to pick it up that would certainly insure its future success...
