Nope. Nothing other than the namesake. I think it was too new for the older guys who are familiar with the original Sharps rifles and cartridges to get excited about and the bore and powder charge style of cartridge naming was too old school for younger folks to care about. To top it all off they put it an AR to make a majority of hunters run away from it. I still thought it was neat.

 

[belshawelk]

.27 Nosler

I would love to own a "6.5x68 Schuler" one day. The only reason is because that's my last name and I think it would be cool to have a cartridge with my name on it.

 

[jeff_gibbons]

6.5-06
338 Fed
257 bob

 

[Pucky Freak]

.270
.45-70
.22-250

Pretty low on the gear priority list though, I'm more of a shotgun and archery hunter

 

[NVDesertHunter]

6.5x284
375 H&H bolt action
470 NE in a Double Rifle if I won the lottery

 

[Anschutz]

Well right now I have .221, .223, .243, .45-70, .357, .44, and 9mm so there's a lot. If I had to say 5 it would be:
22 Hornet
.270 Win
.358 Win
.45 ACP
And probably .375HH or .458WM in a ruger No.1.

Not bad.

 

[Mallardsx2]

I always wanted a .50 caliber BMG. I dont know why. I just always have wanted one.

 

[Gman12]

257 Weatherby for me. I need another rifle like I need a hole in the head. Probably will get one next year

 

[Wild Bill]

For me 16 gauge either in an over under, or auto. Maybe that Browning A5 in sweet sixteen

Scheel's in Sioux Falls had a used A5 sweet sixteen a few months ago for a reasonable price. Maybe look for it next time you're in the store. Never know if you'd get lucky and it'd still be there.

 

[WalkingBird]

I got my #1 bucket list caliber last January when I picked up a .257 Roy, but there are a few more I'd love to pick up someday

Ruger #1 International - 6.5x55 swede
Savage 99 - .250 Savage
Winchester M70 - .257 Roberts
Winchester M70 - .30-06 Springfield
Winchester M70 - .35 Whelen

I like the way you think Sir!

 

[deer_shooter]

I agree with Fishing4sanity in saying I want all of them, haha. I've always had an affinity for the obscure/out of the ordinary stuff along with bigger bore rifles as well. So that said, in no particular order....
22 Hornet
250 Savage Improved
30 Herret
400 Whelan
330 Dakota
375 WSM
404 Ruger

 

[zach_destroys]

I have an itch for a 338-06 in a short rifle, like 20" barrel bolt rifle.

 

[Jmscon]

There are some great calibers there everyone!
I love the classic doubles and try not to look at them very much (it’s really embarrassing trying to explain why I have so much drool on my shirt!)

One that has intrigued me since I heard of it is the 6.5x68 RWS. I think you’d need a min 30” barrel to truly get the full potential out of that round.

I think the next rifle I want to own is a .264 win mag. with a 26” 1-7” barrel.

 

[HandgunHunter]

Getting myself a 6.5x30-30ai contender together as we speak.

Just welded the lug on. Now it just needs chambered, crowned, and finished.

 

[Irrelevant]

I'd like a double in every size .410 to 12 (don't need a 10). A 284 Win, and something small like a .243

 

[Jape]

Shiloh Sharps 1874 rifle shooting a converted .45-110 cartridge.

"Bout there'll do."

 

[Gr8bawana]

My list is pretty short compared to some here.
1. 25-06
2. 35 Whelen
3. 8mm Rem Magnum just because you never see them out there
