Yes.... put with 2degree different shoulder and a factory rifle with one twist faster. Guys with skinny jeans and man buns will eat it up.
I remember a lgs worker extolling me the virtues of the new wonder 6.5 creed. I'd had a fast twist 260 for about 8 months that came from a friend's estate, couldn't understand the excitement. By 12' the creed had become the gun industry equivalent to a cult leader.
I have faith in the industry giving us rebranding of what we already have.

I bought a 6.5creed before the 260rem. Now I'm going to sell the creeds to get more 260's. OR maybe I'll just find a way to add more 26cals in AR platforms. I really want an AR style 264wm or just settle for a 26 short mag?
or the prcNo-moor
LR LRM primer all in one. Oh wait Winchester had it but can sell more primers if separate.

remember that one time, before skinny jeans and man buns, when someone would identify a problem and everyone that had a "specialty job" would put their work aside and jump in to help solve the problem as a team…. As-in, they'd get their arce out on the floor and help ramp up production!!!
Wouldn't that be crazy!

You laugh... but it exists
450 marlin and came out in 2000. It's essentially a belted 4570

But it's not really a mag, just belted. Maybe just neck up a wsm into a .458. Just imagine a 500gr from that!

The idea was to make a cartridge that took full advantage of the 1895 strength but couldn't be chambered in old or antique guns. I guess ar the time there was concern about just loading the 4570 up a little. Obviously over about a decade everyone decided just to have 3 tiers of 4570 (antique, 1895, ruger number 1) to solve the problem. So the 450 marlin became essentially an orphan. Guess it wasn't so much a magnum as it was a chamber pressure Ackley, or an internet forum magnum in some sense.
I shot an iron sighted 458 wsm that was built on a wimchester featherweight. Wasn't the meanest thing I've ever shot but it was sporty. There is a fellow up here that has a 416 wsm he shoots at all manner of critters and absolutely loves.
The rapid closing of much of Africa in the last decade and a half has certainly dropped the allure of big bores. They are fun, kinda a bummer they are fun.

I wonder if the 8mm bore has a resurgence. Not this year, maybe never but, marketing is missing an opportunity. They've covered many metric wonder cartridges lately. It seems to be a marketing scheme that has to create something 'new' every year.
