The 6.5CM is just being pushed right now, what happens in 5 years is yet to be determined. It is possible but not likely that the 270 Win dies in 5 years, less likely that the 30-06 and 308 die in that time frame, more likely that the 303 Brit becomes obsolete in that time frame, due to a lack of new firearms chambered in that cartridge.
