The one prediction I WANT to make, is the one I do not DARE make: steel-case 6.5 Grendel.
The 6.5 Grendel, instead of 7.62x39, really should be the world-wide standard assault rifle cartridge. Can you imagine where the firearms world would be if Kalashnikov had had the 6.5 Grendel in 1947? If 7.62x39 is "good enough" for the militarized masses of the world, how much more the 6.5 Grendel, which is twice the cartridge its "grandfather" ever was.
Then we could run around trying to get a better assault rifle cartridge than the 6.5 Grendel, but it would be a much harder slog than simply trying to outdo 7.62x39.
