Cartridges you WISH they made?

Tallpine;

Yup, it could be a muzzle loader, but it sure doesn't have to be. Springfield, the original one you know, had this thing called a trap-door. An adaptation of that trailing edge technology should do quite nicely.

Nuke50, I'm sure it could work in a rifle, too

:D :D :D
 
I want bigger-bore rimfires too. But rimfires won't take the kind of pressure that centerfire cases would. But I still want even the lo-power option, something to give the .22 mag a run for it's money. Unfortunately, un-flattening trajectories does NOT sell, and there's already a plethora of centerfire calibers that essentialy fill all the niches I'd want except for the quarter-bore. Lowering ammo costs isn't enough to sustain the concept against pre-existing rounds.
 
I want a 10mm necked down to 7mm. Integral suppressor. 10" barrel. Loaded with proper bullets, I think it would be the ideal PDF.

Imagine the .30 carbine round, slightly elongated. Make it a rimmed cartridge.

This could be chambered in both rifles and revolvers. Would be a champion little varmint round that could be loaded over 2,000 fps. Plenty of .308 dia bullets out there to choose from. Wouldn't burn up much powder. Would be a natural choice for cast bullet shooters.
