Which obscure handgun round would you like to see catch on?

Arguments on what's obscure or not, and whether or not there is a legitimate role for any of these to fill aside, what uncommon or new handgun round would you like to see catch on?

Catching on includes increased production of both guns and ammo to the point of mainstream pricing.

Think 5.7x28mm, .25 NAA, .32 NAA, 9x25 Dillon, .400 Corbon, .45 GAP, .45 Super, .460 Rowland, .440 Corbon, etc..

.45 Super

Don't think it will ever happen though.

.30 Carbine

9X23

I'll have a 1911 in that caliber someday.

Whats in the 9x23 & not in the .38 Super to make you want it?

Guess I should cast my vote if I'm gonna ask.

I'd like to see the .460 Rowland get big. Considering it was designed to mimic the performance of the .44 Magnum in the same size package as the .45 ACP. Seems pretty useful.

Super hot factory ammo.

From what I've seen factory 38 super is kind of comparable to 9mm +P.

I'll second the 9X23. Loaded with one of the bonded HP's it's gotta be good.
