I guess I never thought of myself as "retro", 'til I saw the posts here.
My last 2 purchases were a .35 Whelen, & a 7x57! I've got 2 buddies begging to buy the latter from me, 1 of whom already has a 7mm-08.
Just last night, I was trying to talk a guy out of a M96 in 6.5x55, but it had already sold...
I never realized how many cartridges there have been out there. I've been thumbing through, "Elmer Keith's Big Game Hunting", and a lot of it sounds like Greek:
.375 Nitro Express
.405 Winchester
.400 Jeffrey
.285 O.K.H. Mauser
.333 Jeffrey Mauser
.45-90
.50-100-450
.333 O.K.H.
.405 W.C.F
.400 Whelen
.334 O.K.H.
.30 Newton
.35 Newton
I don't see myself adding any of these to the safe anytime soon!
