Has the 7RM lost popularity, or is it just not talked about as much because it's been doing its job so reliably for so long that's it's gotten boring? I.e., is it more fun to talk about your wife or Carrie Underwood? Judging from what I see in the basement here it's not the wives.
I think there is an element of that and websites like this can create a somewhat warped sense of reality as to what the "average" shooter is using. At public range days about 99% of the rifles are chambered in 270,30/06,308, 300WM or 7RM on the line. Maybe it's losing popularity amongst the loonies but joe six pack didn't seem to get the memo.
