Right now only the most popular stuff is getting made in large enough quantity to keep prices from going into the realm of ridiculous. This is why I'm such a proponent of keeping it simple with rifle calibers. 6.5 and 6mm Creed are fine, but they can't touch .308, .30-06, .223/556, .30-30, and the Russian calibers in terms of price and popularity.
