    I know it won’t happen for liability reasons but modern 9mm defense loads in 9mm Federal or an equivalent “9mm Auto Rim” for 9mm revolvers would be great.

    I very much worry about moon clips getting bent so if I had a 9mm LCR or the like I’d use a moon clip in the gun and carry a speed strip for the reload. I can’t imagine reloading a revolver more than once which really limits the need for my request...

    I know it's not what you want to hear, but as a reloading project that would be incredibly easy.

    All I want from the wish machine is factory .30 Herrett brass and a source for .221FB brass that doesn't need annealed before being necked down.

    Midway is showing Nosler and Lapua 221 Fireball brass in stock. It’s more expensive than the Remington that is listed as unavailable. I hadn’t realized Remington wasn’t making it, but I’ve got plenty of once or twice fired

    If I were wishing based solely on my feels and wants, I'd like to see more .32 H&R and .327 FM loads. A Barnes Vor-Tx/TAC-XPD and HST would be a great start (yes, I'm aware of the Gold Dot .327 FM).

    Wishing based solely on my uses/practicality, poly coated .22LR ammo that won't lead/smoke bad (I hate cleaning suppressors more than I hate cleaning guns) and more FC #1 available. Also . . .

    Would be a superb snubby load that hits to the sights.
    Ditto to this ^^

    Other than that, I'm mostly content with what is available on the market.

    Here it is from an LCR. Did well in organic gel. Would probably be my "go to" load for 357 snub currently.

    Double Tap has a 75gr 327 FM load that uses a Barnes bullet. They also have a 32 HRM loaded with a 60gr Barnes bullet.

    This.

    Plus I want Federal to hurry TF up with #1 FC in 12.

    Since I'm here I'll wish for decent defensive and training loads in .30 Carbine, that little thing is just the home defense "longish" gun for HH6...
    (Also, a decent supply of decent magazines for it.)

    It is a 148gr wadcutter, and not from a mainstream ammo company, but I have been really happy with the Choice Ammunition version, been through several hundred rounds now and it is definitely "service velocity" compared to the other .38 WC ammo...

    Now if Federal would just emulate that....
