.35 Rem and .348 Winchester, as MSP Ret listed.  As well as the .35 Whelen, 7X57 and .303 British

Although, I'm sure I could come up with many more, they would be my first choices.

My wish list has changed over the past few months...some come...others go...but these I would like to have...but before adding any calibers I would prefere seeing # 1-6 take place...

1) 26" barrel options Blued-Stainless and Fluted for all centerfire cartridges...

2) Octagon barrel options of various lenghts for all calibers

3) A full non-tapered bull barrel option with #1's options as well

4) A stronger lock up spring installed ( Thanks Fred M :agree: )

5) Better options for open sites...why not a good flip up 3 ramp express site option as well...

6) A shorter stainless steel hammer and a different type of hammer spur...one like Winchester uses on their rifles...where it's drilled and tapped and very small...

7) Caliber options...

a) 17 Remington
b) 22 PPC
c) 222 Remington
d) 220 Swift
e) 220 Weatherby Rocket
f) 225 Winchester
g) 260 Remington
h) 7x57 Mauser
i) 30-40 Krag
j) 300 Savage
k) 8-57 Mauser
l) 338-06
m) 348 Winchester
n) 35 Remington
o) 358 Winchester
p) 35 Whelen
q) 9.3-74R
r) 375 Winchester
s) 375 H&H
t) 405 Winchester
u) 444 Marlin(Ballard rifling)
v)  45-90
w) 45-120
x) 50 Alaskan
z) 50-140 Sharps

This isn't complete by no means...there are a few others as well...like the 44-40 and the 41 S&W mgnum that should be added...these 2 would be a great addition for those who have those pistols...or older rifles...the list can get real long real fast...

<====  35 Remington (Please) and bring back the 35 Whelen.  

The 460 S&W sounds interesting, due to being able to use multiple calibers already available, too.

I second jerkfaces 9mm or 45ACP.
Nothing too fancy, just like a 20 or 22 inch barrel with open sights.  A very fun, cheap, and great accuracy potiential. Great for plinking and small game-would be very cool for squarill and rabbits.
 I don't think anyone has ever made a 9mm or a 45ACP in a rifle configuration. I could be wrong.

I have only seen very small carbines, like the Kel-Tec and Hi-Point semi auto models. Never in a bolt or single shot.
