Nothing really. Rimmed cartridges went out of fashion about the time double column mags came out so those are just the ones ones that ever got made in large quantity. There were also Siamese Mausers and Arisakas in 8 x 50 and 8 x 52 Siamese with dual column mags, and both those and Lee - Enfields have been converted to .45-70 in fairly large quantities. I've also seen tons of 1889 Schmidt-Rubins converted to .30-30 over the years.

8mm Lebel doesn't very well but that's more to do with the taper than the rim.
