I am not a fan of "gun of the month" fad calibers. Industry, backed by gunrags, will declare the new 274 Remchester the greatest thing... A few years later it's gone.
Mixed in with the fads are genuinely good ideas, though. No one has a crystal ball, but I'm glad I adopted 300 Blackout, though, for example.
I belatedly noticed that 350 Legend - which I mocked as always available during the last ammo shortage - can use pistol bullets I'm already casting (355-358) AND there are upper receivers for it. Just need Legend magazines. I thought it was just a lever gun round. Hmmmm... A bit tricky to reload, however, as it headspaces on the case mouth. Not a problem here.
This is becoming a better idea. Anyone here actually got one? Shot one? I'd like to hear.
Can tell you Walmart always has the ammo...
