Honestly, since almost no ammo of any caliber is on the shelf, I think these "moribund" cartridges might just live on. Thing is, one can look at cartridge sales and make predictions, but they are nothing more than opinions. The weapons that shoot them are still in safes, on walls, over fireplaces, in gun racks and closets all over the US and Canada.
If you think of ammo as software and the guns as hardware, there will always be a demand for it. What good is a computer if there is no software? Also, brass and bullets! How many billion rounds of brass and bullets are lying in wait?
In like manner, the demise of fossil fuel was predicted decades ago - the prophets of doom were in high dudgeon over the gas crisis. Yet >> 50 years and here we are. No more Pintos, Vegas or Beetles. We're motorin' in Rams, Sierras and F-250s like never before.
