35 Rem and 220 Swift. Im only 40 but I got an old soul.
At least a wider variety of bullet weights and types to choose from, for reloading..
In revolvers, I'd sure like to see a few more 41 Magnums to choose from.
I would like that. Especially if it was rifled for heavy cast bullets.I would like to see the .38-55 grow in popularity enough to rival the .45-70.
Some people are struggling to feed their small arms...8 inch Howitzer

I would like to see a howitzer in action before I'd know if it is cooler than a cannon.
.256 Winchester magnum
7-30 waters
30 carbine
the first two mainly because I would like more brass with proper head stamp. The last because it was grossly misrepresented by those coming back from war. It sucks in the role it was put in, but in any other light it is great.
I said put in, not intended for. Way too many carbines found their way into action in place of the heavier rifles, and it got some bad press because of its inadequacy in a role that it was shoved into rather than the role it was intended for. I question how much the m2 had to do with the reputation as well but that’s irrelevant. My 30 carbine will likely see the deer woods this year, and I have absolute faith in its ability assuming I put a shot where it belongs.Wrong.
The .30 carbine does NOT suck in the role it was put in. Veterans who knew how to shoot (people like Audie Murphy for example) really liked the M1 carbine. The carbine was designed as a personal defense weapon, not a main battle rifle. It was for relatively short range. Only the folks that tried to use it in roles where the M1 rifle was appropriate found the carbine lacking.
I've been seriously considering a 7.62/.32 wildcat of sorts, designed for the current crop of PCCs. I was seriously looking at 5.45x39 as the case, shortened with the shoulder cut off and necked down to use .327 Magnum bullets. Kind of like that oddball 7.5FK round that appeared a while back but never caught on or received any sort of standardization.More 32mag or .327's, more 41mags and more things in 7.62-25 Tok.
Sadly, given the current situation I would like to see 9mm make a real comeback!
