Which cartridge/s went into history, was stopped from production, and was revived again?

Has that ever happened?

Looking at the 7x57mm Mauser, it never really went out of production, but it did stop becoming a military cartridge back in the early 1900's when it was replaced by the 8mm Mauser.

It is still a very popular cartridge even today.

You really really need to order it from second hand books on the internet, like R300 to R600
Frank C Barnes, there is a year or two of reading on off and a lifetime of referring too in that book. There are many many such cartridges, especially in handgun and cowboy shooting. A few rifle cartridges are also only run once a year or even less often.

Military or civilian ?
After WWI and WWII people in Europe were not allowed to own firearms of military calibre
These restrictions have however now fallen away

Have a look at the Ron Spomer YouTube channel he covers a lot of different cartridges
Here are two from his channel
