Is this already a "dead duck" in the water? If not yet dead, is it now dying and near dead?

It reminds me in some respects of the of some of the happenings with the .264 Win. mag. Is the 7mm RUM going the direction of the .264 Win mag.?

  Like the 41 Magnum, it has a very loyal following. It is the only readily available commercial mid bore load that will shoot flatter than a 22-250. Most people that have them will not let them go...except dumb A$$ES like myself. I have one I am currently building right now, to replace a SAKO 75 SS in 7 mm RUM that I very mistakenly sold.
  
  From a loading standpoint, there will be brass available for years to come, as the 300 RUM is very popular, and there is still a lot of 7mm RUM brass out there, and several factory loadings.
