I know there will be a lot of new C&R's in 2018 when 1968 rolls into its 50th anniversary ... but is there anything significant coming for 2014?

What good stuff is from 1968?
67 is good 68 is fine....but the best were born in 69.......
Oh yeah, I remember when that song came out.
What's your point, whippersnapper?
1970 FTW, grampas.

BUT...It is a little over a year before 1964 C&R's will be available. We're a month away from C&R's from 1963
Unless I'm mistaken was'nt the 221 Fireball developed for the Remington XP-100 which was manufactured in 1963 through 1998 putting the original manufacture date over 50 years as of this january? And also legal under Md. Law.
The .221 Remington Fireball is a centerfire cartridge created by Remington Arms Company in 1963 as a special round for use in their experimental single-shot bolt-action pistol, the XP-100.
