The introduction of the .350 Legend cartridge expands the hunting potential of the AR platform into areas where lefties had made inroads into restrictions on hunting weapons due to safety concerns.

I’ve never seen a 350 Legend. But it is a straight wall case, with limited cartridge length maxed at 2.26” in a normal AR-15 magazine length. But I think I read somewhere that there are lever actions and bolt action rifles available in that caliber.

When I did a little searching about the caliber, I was surprised to read that several states had outlawed my old 30-30 because it is necked down. What are these idiots thinking?

It has been said that more deer have been killed with a 30-30 rifle than any other rifle.

Sigh. Oh, to live in a more sane time.

Necked down 30 caliber cartridges have been king since before I was born. You can still never go wrong with a 30-06.

My father killed his last whitetail buck at 400 yards with his Remington 700 30-O6 rifle. Don’t remember the year he did that, he died 2-1/2 years ago at 94.

He was an armorer during WWII.
