    .224 boz because the market needs another centerfire .22 with .22mag ballistics.

    The 6mm Knights armament in their 7/8 size AR was pretty cool.

    .351 Winchester and .401 Winchester.

    Revive the Model 1907 and 1910 market, plus a .351 WSL with a longer bullet would fit nicely in a STANAG mag…

    Basically I want a .357 Maximum AR with a smaller rim for better feeding. .351 rims are like 0.015” smaller than a 6.5 SPC rims and could probably use the same bolt.
    Well, you may be a man. You may be a leprechaun. Only one thing’s for sure… you’re in the wrong basement.

    Love to see this. 25-06 is one of the few cartridges that hasn't vanished around here.

    With my gimpy shoulder, I wanted something a bit more gentle to shoot than 30-06 in my 1903. I recalled an old friend in Flag that said he had rebarreled a 1903 to 25-06, then a couple years later to 270. I called, he still had the 25-06 barrel laying around after 40 or 50 years, low miles, and free. I got it installed, then started looking for ammo to get started. Walmart had some, $26/box,, a bit high for that time, but I had a couple boxes.....


    ....In another walmart in another time and place, wandering through checking out the ammo case,...25-06 on clearance, $5/box. I bought all 10. I think Im set on 25-06 brass.

    I could probably get behind a 351 model 1907. It would be nice if some affordable magazines existed also, 5s and 10s.

    Id also like to see 221 make a resurgence, Id love to have one of the remington pistols so chambered. I recall a guy mentioning some crazy small groups @ 300 yards with an XP100. Prairie dog accurate @300 yards in a pistol sounds like a blast.

    .30 Remington. So I could put a few rounds through my granddad's pump action Model 14.

    My grandpa liked the small centerfire 22s. I have a Sako action Fireball that he stocked. I remember him saying he had his gunsmith install a barrel to look like a Winchester, I think modeled after the Featherweight. Grandma gave it to me after he passed. I’ve shot a lot of prairie dogs with it. He also had a Ruger No. 3 in 22 Hornet he had restyled to look more like a No. 1. Unfortunately he sold it before I was aware he was doing so.

    I bought a new 16 gauge H&R Topper about 83 or 84. I’d like to stumble across an 1100 or maybe an 870 in 16 gauge. I occasionally still see shells on store shelves.
