I think only the 9mm is more rare, but there are several made in the custom shop like the 276 Pederson, that are one of a kind. And others like the 300 Savage, being the rarest one in the catalog.

I understand Winchester made one in 35 Remington also.

Be careful; you guys are mixing apples and tomatoes.
There are the cataloged cartridges, and the special order cartridges. Two lists of rarity.
35 Remington and 7x57 are both standard calibers; here is the list rarest first:
300 Savage
35 Rem
458 Win
7x57
358 Win
250-3000
and the rest are common ones we all know..
Then there is the special order list; 9mm, 7.65, and many other one of a kinds. Like 30-30, 8mm, 405 WCF, 303 British, 348 Win, and others.

I believe they never made one, but the bee’s knees would have been a pre-war super grade in 9.3x62, and with the standard barrel contour. Too bad Americans were ignorant of that round.

Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984:

"Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right."
