Elmer Keith experimented with tube primers and the results were good, but apparently not favorable enough to prompt any ammo company to pick the idea up and run with it.

Using two powders in a cartridge (usually with a faster burning powder over a slower burning powder) is called a duplex load. I suppose a triplex load would be the same thing with three powders.
