And then there are the cartridges that have gone full-circle and are the definition of hip now.. namely the .38 Special. A wonderfully capable round for the discerning aficionado.
The 9mm is certainly hip, in a meta sort of way.. everyone uses it but at one time, even though everyone "used" it, nobody really did. I started using it when effective ammo was very hard to get so I started loading my cast semi-wadcutters and some select JHP's for hunting small and medium game (hog/deer) with. And here we are today.. it's pretty much the most efficient cartridge on the planet, used by everyone and about for everything.
