I think the companies have cut back on making rifles in this caliber because it cuts into hmr sales which cost 2 to 3 times more to feed ammo. 400fps is significant but the mach 2 does very well at normal hunting ranges.

I agree with the OP 100%.  Gunmakers need to get their marketing groups up to speed and push this cartridge more.  It is a sweetheart!
