I recall a discussion with a friend about a hot new RF cartridge that was taking the gunzine world by storm. He wanted to buy a rimfire rifle and didn't want an "old" .22 LR. As to future ammo availability, he pointed out that the rifles and the cartridges were made by a major manufacturer and would be available for many decades, if not centuries, maybe even displacing the .22 entirely.
I advised sticking with the .22 LR and was derided, in a very friendly way, for being old fashioned and not up with the latest trends.
So my friend bought his 5mm Remington and was happy.
