I guess I didn't get the memo that it was obsolete as I just bought my second one a Browning B78. Then again it wouldn't have mattered to me as some of my favorite calibers are "obsolete or at least threatened with extinction" such as the 250/3000, it's bigger brother the 300 Savage, 38/55, 6MM Rem, 405 Win., 25 WSSM ect.
