Guess because I have my Grand fathers model 94 it would be 32-40.. My son has his great grand fathers Marlin in 32 Special. What is neat is both guns actually use the same 32 cal bullet is just different case shape.

I'm not sure what the definition of "non-traditional" is.
But I've fallen in love with the 6.5 Grendel.

303 British. It's the only odd caliber I've used. I do have an old 25/20 but it hasn't been shot since long before my Dad died 22 years ago. He said he shot quite a few deer with it.
