This episode of the Guns Magazine podcast explores the enduring appeal of 'archaic' cartridges for modern shooters. Hosts Brent Wheat and Roy Huntington discuss why cartridges over a century old, such as the .44-40, .25-20, and .45 Colt, remain popular and effective. They argue against the 'fear of missing out' (FOMO) driving constant new cartridge development, emphasizing that proven designs offer value, historical connection, and reliable performance. The discussion highlights that these older cartridges are not obsolete but rather classics that continue to serve their purpose.
