The 5mm was a great little round. There was one problem with it though. Remington had trouble with the cartridges. They kept blowing out the rims on the cases...in more than one batch. That was the reason it was discontinued. They just tried to limit their liability is all. Now not everyone knows but I think Remington has a bit of a stake in Aguila based in Mexico. I also have heard that there are going to be some bbls for the Contender produced again. Maybe CZ chambering a rifle . Hope it all comes true. Only time will tell
BTW I sold qite a few of the Remington 5mm rifles They were pretty accurate
