    I gotta be honest why buy a gun if you can't find ammo for it? Or a new unestablished caliber weapon? If the things were pre 2020 sill I might be interested in the 350 legend my self. But the fact of the matter of I have a .300 blk out with only a few hundred rounds. That I'm not going to shoot unless necessary. Well I'm surly not going to switch to a round that cannot be found. Just my 2c

    I built a 350 legend in the Fall and it is amazing. No recoil and the 150 grain .355 Winchester bullet it devastating on Deer. Killed a doe at about 150 yards. I went to almost every Walmart in South LA and bought all the 350 I could find. Funny I built it because it was the only ammo left and now it is gone too.

    Only reloading dies I've seen on the shelves has been 380 and 350 legend?

    I got excited when it came out since I have a 35 Rem and a 350 Rem Mag. Then I found out they went with pistol diameter projectiles. I would have bought one if it used .358 bullets.

    Walmart at Loyola and West Esplanade in Kenner had 20 boxes Friday and nothing else. Friend has one also and killed a doe with it. He seems to like it quite a bit. I'm not stocking another caliber myself.

    Same here,If I was to get into a legend I'd probably get a .356 resizing die from Potterfield,Squeeze down a 158 grain to .356

    I got a Lee 356 resizing die and squeeze 357 bullets down so they don't leave a bulge in the case and make for hard chambering. I have been loading the 180gr XTP bullets. I had the Ruger American rifle in 350 Legend. I sold it as I also shoot 357 Maximum and 360 Dan Wesson using the same 180gr bullets. I would like to get a single shot rifle in 350L but it's redundant since I shoot the 360 Dan Wesson in my H&R Handi rifle and could easily turn it into a 357 Max with a little chamber reaming. I actually shoot 357 Supermag in my Dan Wesson revolver, which is a little longer than the 357 Max and won't chamber in the Ruger 357 Max revolvers. You can load the 180gr XTP and seat it to the bottom cannelure whereas the regular Max must be seated to the top cannelure. This increases the case capacity a bit and 35 Remington velocities are possible, namely a 200gr bullet at 2000fps in a rifle. The Winchester 180gr Powerpoint ammo achieves 2100fps in the 350 Legend out of a 16" barrel.

    Thanks, Trying to get my buddy with this on the reloading train, He's convinced now not to relay on Academy,Chi-mart or anyone else for his future plinking needs.

    Friend of mine has one and seems to love it, But like everyone he's out of boolits.

    I'm thinking its about the same projectile as the 35 Whelen and 357 mag

    How yall like em if you have em Or have you tried out a friends ?
    Out of 350 legend? Every damn time I go to any gun shop, wal mart, or academy they have two calibers I would bet a pay check on. 350 legend and 450 bushmaster. 350 legend is literally everywhere around the Nola metro area

    yes sir and also until around October 6.5 creed was the third one always on the shelf as well. 6.5 is gone pecan but the 350 amd 450 still standing. Hell I can tell you who makes the ammo and what the boxes look like just from seeing them every time I’m looking for ammo

    What are the brands, bullet weights, and prices of the 350L and 450B you are seeing, if you don't mind. I know people looking for ammo.
    I sold my Ruger American bolt 350L but it was a great gun. I still have a Ruger American 450B and love it but I can make my own ammo for it as well.
