What do you think the next cartridge to compete with the likes of .380, .38, .357, 9, 40, 45 will be? The 10mm is not new and doesn't appear to ever move from the niche position it's in. The .45 GAP is next to dead. The .327 is probably actually dead. The .22 TCM is pretty cool but I don't see it going into many more platforms....
What do you think the next handgun round will be? Maybe a new revolver cartridge that surpasses the .357? Maybe a bottleneck auto-loading cartridge that does really well? Maybe something case-less...
The .40 S&W was the last real success in the handgun world, let that be the gauge for what the next round has to beat.
In my opinion, bullet and propellent technology seem to be keeping the traditional choices very valid, but that's no fun and not the question I'm asking .
