Hawk, no doubt, there CAN be no market for something that does not exist.
Coldbore, I had Pac-Nor do a 6.5-308 for me in 1995. Asquare as you may know applied for Saami, yet somehow things did not play out for Asquare even though they were first. Makes no difference to me, I OWN a Custom FULL BLOWN 260 Rem so Stamped on the bbl. I also have some RP brass.
I have said and agree the market is saturated. In 308 siblings, the 25 and 27 bore have yet to be standardized. Who knows if/when and who may do it.
As to my 'aspirations' to make a buck in the industry, I truly have none. I enjoy this OUTSIDE the commercial aspect. Being 'Inside' would take some fun factor out for me.
1. Let's make a SA cartridge that doesn't offer anything at all BC, speed or recoil wise over cartridges that already exist.
2. Let's make it first, then find a market? That, there is doubt about.
3. The .277 Billy Norris was a better idea; at least the market exists for waterheads.
Seems the bore was ignored largely by the Euros too, in the X57 case, prolly outta utter stupidity and lack of foresight...
